Steps 4 and 5 - PO, Database and Query config files

The slice3.tar content is generated from the slice2.tar content by running make -s build_1. This generates a skeleton configuration file for each PO.

At this stage, the developer has to edit dev.conf and each PO's configuration file. See hints on editing configuration files.

The DO and QUERY sections in dev.conf must be added at this stage. A sample of these sections for the Timesheet app is described here. (The script mkconfdo generates much of the required DO config. It doesn't generate the DO.DBMS value, and its output should be checked for correctness.)

The format and content of the configuration files is described here.

In the Makefiles under src/presentation/, move the POs to PO_JAVA in each of these Makefiles.

The slice4.tar contains the POs' configuration, hand-edited from the slice3.tar content.
