2.9 Deploy and verify

run "ant deploy" from ext to move all the changes we have done so far both under "ext-web" and "ext-impl"

Restart the server and check the new library portlet is working perfectly fine.

This portlet will be the basis for all other concepts we are going to learn in the subsequent chapters.

All the best !!
