Study Notes

Servlet Account Creation

  • Create a AccountServlet.java and verify both doGet() and doPost() execute the processRequest() method.

Redirecting Requests

  • Use response.sendRedirect("<a href="http://www.umt.edu.my">http://www.umt.edu.my</a>"); to redirect a client to a different Web page.
  • sendRedirect is a method within the HttpServletResponse interface.
  • The string parameter is utilized as the URL to which the client’s request is redirected.

Servlet Overview

  • A servlet is a Java program that exists and executes in J2EE servers, used to receive HTTP protocol requests, process and send responses to clients.
  • Servlets live to service clients.

Sharing Data Between Servlets

  • Servlets can call other servlets using a RequestDispatcher.
  • RequestDispatcher handles the process using the forward() or include() methods.
  • Data can be shared between servlets using:
    • ServletRequest object
    • HttpSession object
    • ServletContext object
  • These objects provide methods to set and get attributes.

Handling HTTP Requests in HttpServlet

  • For HTTP methods, there are corresponding HttpServlet methods.
  • doGet() and doPost() are the two most common HTTP request types.
  • GET requests retrieve information from a server, while POST requests send data to a server.

HTTP Methods and Corresponding HttpServlet Methods

  • GET corresponds to doGet()
  • POST corresponds to doPost()
  • HEAD corresponds to doHead()
  • PUT corresponds to doPut()
  • DELETE corresponds to doDelete()
  • OPTIONS corresponds to doOptions()

ServletExceptions and IOExceptions

  • ServletExceptions and IOExceptions are thrown to indicate problems during servlet execution.
