Type make to compile the application. Alternatively, you can compile the classes yourself.

Type make deploy or copy the required files into the "deploy" directory: deploy/WEB-INF/classes/BogDroSoft/soaptest/.

Type make war to create a Web Archive (WAR) file ready for deployment. Alternatively, you can create a ZIP archive from the contents of the "deploy" directory (the "deploy" directory itself MUST NOT be in the archive).
