MZH Library Management

Initial JSP + Servlet + MySQL scaffold for the library-management system.

Stack

• Java 11
• Maven WAR project layout
• JSP + Servlet on Tomcat
• MySQL through JDBC DAO classes

Local Setup

1. Create a MySQL database and run src/main/resources/db/schema.sql.
2. Copy src/main/resources/db.properties.example to src/main/resources/db.properties.
3. Fill in the MySQL URL, username, and password.
4. Build with Maven when available:

mvn clean package

5. Deploy target/library-management.war to Tomcat.

The login flow is intentionally limited to the first scaffold slice. It supports administrator, librarian, and reader roles, stores only a safe authenticated-user snapshot in the HTTP session, and keeps authentication work in Servlet -> Service -> DAO boundaries.
