GenericServlet

[S Majumder]

Hi everybody ,

Can we extend the GenericServlet Class ?
What type of request/response a GenericServlet can handle ?
Can it be possible for GenericServlet to handle HTTP kind of request /response ?


regards,
S

Have you read the javadoc of that class? All your questions are answered in there http://download.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/servlet/GenericServlet.html

Thanks Jaikiran Pai for your valuable comments .

In the Interface ServletContext I have seen one method named log

public void log(java.lang.String message,
java.lang.Throwable throwable)

Writes an explanatory message and a stack trace for a given Throwable exception to the servlet log file. The name and type of the servlet log file is specific to the servlet container, usually an event log.

Parameters:
message - a String that describes the error or exception
throwable - the Throwable error or exception

My question is, which one is better to implement here ?

the log4J or the above mentioned log method or the java.util.Logger ?


regards,
S
