Java Server Pages Definition
JavaServer Pages. A server-side technology,

JavaServer pages are an extension to the Java
servlet technology that was developed by Sun. JSPs
have dynamic scripting capability that works in
tandem with HTML code, separating the page logic
from the static elements -- the actual design and
display of the page. Embedded in the HTML page,
the Java source code and its extensions help make
the HTML more functional, being used in dynamic
database queries, for example. JSPs are not
restricted to any specific platform or server.
Java Server Pages Requirements
●
Java Server Pages require the
●
Tomcat Jsp Container.
Jsp Example
<jsp:useBean id="LI" class="meatOrder.LoginMain" scope="request">
Jsp to use java class LoginMain
<%rtnCd = LI.Login();%>
<%if ((rtnCd.equals("1"))) { %>
And refer to program as “LI”
<jsp:forward page="Welcome.html"></jsp:forward>
<%
<%
} else {
If rtnCd equals “1” forward
%> user to Welcome page
<HTML>
<HEAD> Else
<TITLE>Login.jsp</TITLE>
</HEAD>
Redisplay Login Page
<BODY>
<H2 align="center">Autry Greer and Son's, Inc.</H2>
<FORM method="post" name="LogIn"
action="http://S1041402/app1/jsp/Login.jsp">
<p align="center">User Id : <INPUT type="text" name="userId" size="10"></p>
<p align="center">Password: <INPUT type="password" name="passWord"
size="10"></p>
<p align="center"><INPUT type="submit" name="logIn" value="Submit"></p>
<INPUT type="hidden" name="rtncd" value=null></FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
<%
}
%>
Java Objects (Classes, Methods,
Variables)
public class LoginMain {
Java program example contains:
* Program Variables
*/
1 java class (LoginMain)
public String userId = " ";
public String passWord = " ";
/**
public String rtnCd = "0";
3 variables(userId, passWord, rtnCd)
* Login native method
*/
3 methods(Login, getUserId, getPassWord)
public native String Login();
/**
* Getter methods generated by Websphere
Note that method Login
*/ does not contan any code
/** Return User Id */ and has the “native”
public byte [] getUserId() {
return userId.getBytes(); modifier
}
/** Return PassWord */
public byte [] getPassWord() { While getUserId and getPassword
return passWord.getBytes();
} contain code and are not “native”
The Java Native Interface
The Java Native Interface (JNI)
The JNI allows Java code that runs within a Java

Virtual Machine (JVM) to operate with applications
and libraries written in other languages, such as C, C+
+,Visual Basic and RPG ILE. In addition, the
Invocation API allows you to embed the Java Virtual
Machine into your native applications.
AS/400 Native RPGILE methods must be coded

within Sub-Procedure Modules and made into Service
Programs. The Service Program must reside within
the library list.
Calling AS/400 Java Native Method
Requirements
/**
* Find Login Service Program
*/ Find Service Program
“SRVLOGIN” in library list
static {
System.loadLibrary("SRVLOGIN");
}
/** Call to “native” method “Login”

*/

JSP and RPG Integration Review
Java Native Interface (JNI) provides method of interfacing JSP's

and RPG
RPG can access JSP forms thru prototyped “getter/setter”

methods
NOTE
Custom Tag Libs can improve development time often
eliminating coding
Two Main JSP Development FrameWorks:
Struts Java Server Faces

Java Server Faces Example
login.jsp
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>

<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<f:loadBundle basename="bundle.Messages" var="Message" />
<html>
<head><title>Login</title></head>
<body>
<f:view>
<h:form id="loginForm" >
*<h:message for="loginForm" /><br />
<h:outputText value="#{Message.username_label}" />
<h:inputText id="username" value="#{LoginMain.userName}" required="true" >
<f:validateLength maximum="15" minimum="3" />
</h:inputText>
<h:message for="username" /><br />
<h:outputText value="#{Message.password_label}" />
<h:inputSecret id="password" value="#{LoginMain.passWord}" required="true" >
<f:validateLength maximum="15" minimum="3" />
</h:inputSecret>
<h:message for="password" /><br />
<h:commandButton id="submit" action="#{LoginMain.login}" value="#{Message.login_button}"
/>
</h:form>
</f:view>
</ body >
</ html >
