All Implemented Interfaces:
  Serializable, Servlet, ServletConfig

    public class JspServlet

extends HttpServlet

The JSP engine (a.k.a Jasper). The servlet container is responsible for providing a URLClassLoader for the web application context Jasper is being used in. Jasper will try get the Tomcat ServletContext attribute for its ServletContext class loader, if that fails, it uses the parent class loader. In either case, it must be a URLClassLoader.

Constructor Detail

### JspServlet

    public JspServlet()

Method Detail

### init

    public void init(ServletConfig config)
              throws ServletException

  Description copied from class: `GenericServlet`
  Called by the servlet container to indicate to a servlet that the servlet is being placed into service. See `Servlet.init(javax.servlet.ServletConfig)`.

  This implementation stores the `ServletConfig` object it receives from the servlet container for later use. When overriding this form of the method, call `super.init(config)`.

  Specified by:
    `init` in interface `Servlet`
  Overrides:
    `init` in class `GenericServlet`
  Parameters:
    `config` - the `ServletConfig` object that contains configutation information for this servlet
  Throws:
    `ServletException` - if an exception occurs that interrupts the servlet's normal operation
  See Also:
    `UnavailableException`

### getJspCount

    public int getJspCount()

  Returns the number of JSPs for which JspServletWrappers exist, i.e., the number of JSPs that have been loaded into the webapp with which this JspServlet is associated.

  This info may be used for monitoring purposes.

  Returns:
    The number of JSPs that have been loaded into the webapp with which this JspServlet is associated

### setJspReloadCount

    public void setJspReloadCount(int count)

  Resets the JSP reload counter.

  Parameters:
    `count` - Value to which to reset the JSP reload counter

### getJspReloadCount

    public int getJspReloadCount()

  Gets the number of JSPs that have been reloaded.

  This info may be used for monitoring purposes.

  Returns:
    The number of JSPs (in the webapp with which this JspServlet is associated) that have been reloaded

### getJspErrorCount

    public int getJspErrorCount()

  Gets the number of errors triggered by JSP invocations.

  Returns:
    The number of errors triggered by JSP invocations

### service

    public void service(HttpServletRequest request,
                        HttpServletResponse response)
                 throws ServletException,
                        IOException

  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:
    `ServletException` - if the HTTP request cannot be handled
    `IOException` - if an input or output error occurs while the servlet is handling the HTTP request
  See Also:
    `Servlet.service(javax.servlet.ServletRequest, javax.servlet.ServletResponse)`

### destroy

    public void destroy()

  Description copied from class: `GenericServlet`
  Called by the servlet container to indicate to a servlet that the servlet is being taken out of service. See `Servlet.destroy()`.

  Specified by:
    `destroy` in interface `Servlet`
  Overrides:
    `destroy` in class `GenericServlet`
