| Running the Amazon Web Services Sample Application in NetBeans |
| Amazon provides a rich web services interface for accessing their on-line content. |
| To help you understand how to use those web services, Amazon also provides a |
| comprehensive sample application which demonstrates how to use all of the exposed |
| operations. Taking that one step further, this article shows you how to modify, |
| build, run and debug the Amazon sample application from the NetBeans IDE. By doing |
| so you get all the NetBeans IDE benefits such as code completion, code hyper linking |
| and integrated Javadoc assistance. Also, the ability to debug the application, |
| single step though and monitor variables can go a long way to deepening your |
| understanding of how the Amazon web services operate. |
