Additional necessary steps to set up the projects

To run the application from within Eclipse, there needs to be class files from TreeGrowServer and TolwebHibernate available. These are stored in TreeGrowServer/generatedclasses/ and TolwebHibernate/classes/. As the generatedclasses directory is referred to in the .classpath file of TreeGrowServer, it cannot Build because of that missing directory. These folders are not checked in to the SVN as we want SVN to ignore there contents, and we don't want their contents checked in. To solve this problem:

• in project TolwebHibernate, create at its root level a folder called "classes"
• in project TreeGrowServer, create at its root level a folder called "generatedclasses"
