I am developing web applications using maven... As a developer cleaning,building, stoping tomcat, placing war file, starting tomcat and opening browser takes 50% time in  a day.. Mostly coding wont take that much time. Each time ill make change i have to build,copy etc...

I love developing But these kind of hectic work make me feel lazy...

Hurray.. !!!

I found a solution for this... BATCH file..

I created a batch file which does all my work.. i am free.. What i have to do is .. Type coding Run the batch file and see the changes.. Sounds nice..

My code is...
