    What is a Servlet?

    • HTML code in a Java class


    • Servlets handle controller part in
    MVC (Model-View-Controller) pattern
    • A servlet is a Java-based web application server
    extension program that implements a standard API.
    • Servlets are used in conjunction with JSPs in MVC
    • Servlets can maintain state across many server
    transactions by using HTTP Cookies, session variables
    or URL Rewriting by Servlet Sessions.
    A simple Servlet class
    import java.io.IOException;
    import java.io.PrintWriter;
    import javax.servlet.ServletException;
    import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
    import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
    import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

    public class HelloWorld extends HttpServlet {


    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
    throws ServletException, IOException {
    PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
    out.println("<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 " +
    "Transitional//EN\">\n" + "<html>\n" + "<head><title>Hello World
    </title></head>\n" + "<body>\n" + "<h1>Hello World </h1> \n“
    +"</body></html>“ ) ;
    }
    }
    What is JSP?
    • Java code in HTML & XML
    • JSP handles view part in MVC
    • A text-based document capable of returning
    both static and dynamic content to a client browser
    • Static content
    – HTML, XML, Text
    • Dynamic content
    – Java code
    – Displaying properties of JavaBeans
    – Invoking business logic defined in Custom tags
    What do you mean by Static & Dynamic
    Contents?
    ● Static contents
    – Typically static HTML page
    – Same display for everyone
    ● Dynamic contents
    – Contents is dynamically generated based on conditions
    – Conditions could be
    • User identity
    • Time of the day
    • User entered values through forms and selections
    A Simple JSP Page
    • (Blue: static, Red: Dynamic contents)
    <html>
    <body>
    Hello World!
    <br>
    Current time is <%= new java.util.Date() %>
    </body>
    </html>
    Output
    Difference
    Do I have to Use JSP over Servlet
    or vice-versa?
    • No, you want to use both leveraging the strengths of
    each technology
    – Servlet's strength is “controlling and dispatching”
    – JSP's strength is “displaying”
    • In a typically production environment, both servlet
    and JSP are used in MVC pattern
    – Servlet handles controller part
    – JSP handles view part
