The application server includes its own packages that extend and add to the Java Servlet Application Programming Interface (API). These extensions and additions make it easier to manage session states, create personalized Web pages, generate better servlet error reports, and access databases. Locate the Javadoc for the application server APIs in the product install_root\web\apidocs directory.
All the public WebSphere Application Server APIs are located in the com.ibm.websphere... packages.
What to do next
Assemble your code artifacts into a Web module using the Assembly Toolkit as a prerequisite to deploying the code to the application server.
