   b) Apply Imaginea code styles/formatting settings to avoid un-wanted diffs with spaces in pull requests.
     - Download https://github.com/downloads/Imaginea/mViewer/settings.jar and use import settings option to apply it.
     - Make sure to format the code using ctr + alt + l before committing code.
     - When committing code, if see a popup regarding different line separators used in project, 
       then click 'Leave unchanged'.        
   c) Configure a Tomcat Server locally in intellij to run/debug mViewer.
4) You can send a pull request to mViewer master branch with your features/enhancements/fixes.
