+** Lesson 3 -- build the war file
+
+*** Starting point
+    A clean git working area with two additional class files and one
+    additional jar file.
+
+*** Goal
+    A deployable war file
+
+*** Steps
+    0. [@0] Review the following:
+       - http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/appdev/deployment.html
+         to understand the structure of the =war= file and the
+         =web.xml= file
+       - =${DEV_HOME}/source/res/web.xml= to understand how this
+         application is to be used.
+    1. Create an empty directory in =${DEV_HOME}= called =webapp=,
+       then its directory structure and then change into it:
+       : mkdir -vp ${DEV_HOME}/webapp
+       : mkdir -vp ${DEV_HOME}/webapp/WEB-INF/lib
+       : cd ${DEV_HOME}/webapp
+    2. Copy in the jsps:
+       : cp -rv ${DEV_HOME}/source/jsps/* ${DEV_HOME}/webapp
+    3. Copy in the jar file:
+       : cp -rv ${DEV_HOME}/source/lib/javaBootcampNoEclipse.jar ${DEV_HOME}/webapp/WEB-INF/lib
+    4. Copy in the =web.xml= file:
+       : cp -rv ${DEV_HOME}/source/res/web.xml ${DEV_HOME}/webapp/WEB-INF
+    5. Create the war file:
+       : jar cvf ${DEV_HOME}/source/lib/javaBootcampNoEclipse.war *
+    6. If this was successful you will now have a new file:
+       : ${DEV_HOME}/source/lib/javaBootcampNoEclipse.war
+       If this is the case, remove the direcory =${DEV_HOME}/webapp=
+       and move on to lesson 4:
+       : rm -fr ${DEV_HOME}/webapp
+       : git checkout lesson-4
