Regarding Request

hi,

how to send a request from one context to another context by using jsp or servlet can you help me.


Thanking you.

Are you trying to actually share the request object between contexts or would a simple redirect do the trick for you?

I am sharing request object how to send from one context to another context

Look at:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17477_01/javaee/1.4/api/javax/servlet/ServletContext.html#getContext(java.lang.String) to get a handle to the other context.

Then look at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17477_01/javaee/1.4/api/javax/servlet/ServletContext.html#getRequestDispatcher(java.lang.String) which is used to forward request.

Note: The servlet spec (last I read it) is not very clear on all the specifics of cross context communication so the specific implementation details tend to vary from container to container. Also, what I've posted will not work if the two contexts are not in the same container on the same machine.

Without single container its not possible but you can use request parameter in URL to getting do.
