Hosting Silverlight Content in JSP Page.

 Tools : Visual Studio 2008,NetBeans IDE/Eclipse

Framework:  Silverlight 3.0, Java 1.6

Server:  JBoss Server 5.0.

Steps to follow:

  1. Build the Java site and deploy the application on JBoss Server.
  2. If you want to deploy site manually:

When you build the Java project in the NetBeans It will create the <Project_Name>.war file.

To deploy this java web site on Jboss we need to  copy this file at following location in JBoss:

“<Installed_Location>\\jboss-5.0.1.GA\jboss-5.0.1.GA\server\default\deploy\<Project_Name>.war”.
