Introduction

This chapter discusses general topics in the servlet API programming interface. The chapter describes each task in isolation. See Chapter 9, Creating Servlets, for an example of a complete servlet.

This chapter follows the convention that request is a rwsf::HttpServletRequest object, that response is a rwsf::HttpServletResponse object and that any stand-alone lines of code occur within a servlet function such as doPost().
