Modifying Hello World Service

When you modify service Java code, Eclipse automatically compiles the changes into .class files that the server runs. To test your changes, you must re-start the server, so that it loads the updated .class files.

Let's modify the Hello World servuce and include the current user's name into the message formatted on the server.

  • Open the HelloWorld.java.
  • Add the highlighted code:
