Uses of Servlet in javax.servlet

Classes in javax.servlet that implement Servlet
`class` `GenericServlet` Defines a generic, protocol-independent servlet.

Methods in javax.servlet that return Servlet
`Servlet` `UnavailableException.getServlet()` Deprecated. As of Java Servlet API 2.2, with no replacement. Returns the servlet that is reporting its unavailability.

`Servlet`

`ServletContext.getServlet(java.lang.String name)`
Deprecated. As of Java Servlet API 2.1, with no direct replacement.

This method was originally defined to retrieve a servlet from a `ServletContext`. In this version, this method always returns `null` and remains only to preserve binary compatibility. This method will be permanently removed in a future version of the Java Servlet API.

In lieu of this method, servlets can share information using the `ServletContext` class and can perform shared business logic by invoking methods on common non-servlet classes.

Constructors in javax.servlet with parameters of type Servlet
`UnavailableException(Servlet servlet, java.lang.String msg)` Deprecated. As of Java Servlet API 2.2, use `UnavailableException.UnavailableException(String)` instead.
`UnavailableException(int seconds, Servlet servlet, java.lang.String msg)` Deprecated. As of Java Servlet API 2.2, use `UnavailableException.UnavailableException(String, int)` instead.

Uses of Servlet in javax.servlet.http

Classes in javax.servlet.http that implement Servlet
`class` `HttpServlet` Provides an abstract class to be subclassed to create an HTTP servlet suitable for a Web site.

Uses of Servlet in javax.servlet.jsp

Subinterfaces of Servlet in javax.servlet.jsp
`interface` `HttpJspPage` The HttpJspPage interface describes the interaction that a JSP Page Implementation Class must satisfy when using the HTTP protocol.
`interface` `JspPage` The JspPage interface describes the generic interaction that a JSP Page Implementation class must satisfy; pages that use the HTTP protocol are described by the HttpJspPage interface.

Methods in javax.servlet.jsp with parameters of type Servlet

`abstract void`

`PageContext.initialize(Servlet servlet, ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, java.lang.String errorPageURL, boolean needsSession, int bufferSize, boolean autoFlush)`
The initialize method is called to initialize an uninitialized PageContext so that it may be used by a JSP Implementation class to service an incoming request and response within it's _jspService() method.

`abstract PageContext` `JspFactory.getPageContext(Servlet servlet, ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, java.lang.String errorPageURL, boolean needsSession, int buffer, boolean autoflush)` obtains an instance of an implementation dependent javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext abstract class for the calling Servlet and currently pending request and response.
