  Description copied from class: `HttpServlet`
  Receives standard HTTP requests from the public `service` method and dispatches them to the `do` XXX methods defined in this class. This method is an HTTP-specific version of the `Servlet.service(javax.servlet.ServletRequest, javax.servlet.ServletResponse)` method. There's no need to override this method.

  Overrides:
    `service` in class `HttpServlet`
  Parameters:
    `request` - the `HttpServletRequest` object that contains the request the client made of the servlet
    `response` - the `HttpServletResponse` object that contains the response the servlet returns to the client
  Throws:
    `IOException` - if an input or output error occurs while the servlet is handling the HTTP request
    `ServletException` - if the HTTP request cannot be handled
  See Also:
    `Servlet.service(javax.servlet.ServletRequest, javax.servlet.ServletResponse)`
