Accessing a Servlet from a business delegate class of another web application

[Kumar Kausikasa]

Hi,

My requirement is as follows. I have two servlet based web applications A and B. From the application A business delegate class, i have to call a servlet in application B, get the data.

I thought i would be able to do this via URLConnection. Following is the code snippet, but the call to servletB is not happening

Am i doing something wrong here ? If yes, please let me know the approach how this can be accomplished.

Thank you all for your time

try {   
			logger.info("Steps for calling the servlet");
			URL aURL = new URL("http://hostname/servletB");   
						URLConnection aConnection = aURL.openConnection();   
			aConnection.setDoInput(true);   
			aConnection.setDoOutput(true);   
			aConnection.setUseCaches(false);   
			aConnection.setDefaultUseCaches(false);   
			aConnection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type",   
			"application/octet-stream");   
			ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(aConnection.getOutputStream());
						out.flush();   
			out.close(); 
			logger.info("After calling the servlet");
			ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(aConnection.getInputStream());
			logger.info("After the stream"); 
						HashMap<String,String> resList = null;
			resList = (HashMap)in.readObject();
			logger.info("Size of the hashMap " + resList.size());
			logger.info((resList.get((String)orgListArray.get(0)))); 
			logger.info((resList.get((String)orgListArray.get(1)))); 
			logger.info((resList.get((String)orgListArray.get(2)))); 
		
			
			} 
			catch (MalformedURLException e) 
			{   
			e.printStackTrace();   
			} 
			catch (ClassNotFoundException cne) {
				// TODO: handle exception
			}
			catch (IOException e) 
			{   
			e.printStackTrace(); 
			}
