    5 The client API allows you to use caTissue's domain objects (like Participant or Specimen) within another application (the client). All of the domain objects are serializable Java classes. The modus operandi is for the client to create or retrieve one of these and pass back the object to caTissue. The object gets serialized over the network for this to work.

The WEB-INF/classes/remoteService.xml file needs to be edited to contain the correct URL for the instance of CaTissue which is to be referenced by the API client.

The WEB-INF/classes/remoteService.xml file needs to be edited to contain the correct URL for the instance of CaTissue which is to be referenced by the API client (on LAMP v2 servers, the easiest way is to reference 'localhost:8080'). Additionally, index.jsp can be edited to give a specific 'legend' for the relevant installation ("TEST", or whatever). Then the war file needs recreating, using "jar cvf sampler.war *" in the root directory of the unpacked war file. Remember to delete the old war file first.
