It’s a hold-over from the old examples folder that I started with. It starts up an http server that serves out the contents of the ‘lib-dl’ folder. In the older examples in the JTSK, the pattern was to start up the class server separately. In the new examples that I did, both the 'start-infra.config’ and ’start-hello-service.config’ files include entries to start their own class servers, so they are independent (if you look carefully, you’ll see that they specify different ports for the http server).
So you’re right, the ‘start-class-server.config’ file is not used in the examples instructions, although it might be useful as an example of what entries to include in a starter configuration file. I’d be interested in opinions as to whether we should just take it out of the new examples project.
