Classes in JSP, Overloading of constructor (parametric constructor)

Question

Classes in JSP, Overloading of constructor (parametric constructor)
I have created a Java class in JSP and created new objects, no problem.
I have also manage to overload methods like
writeOut() {}
writeOut(String arg) {}
writeOut(String arg, String arg2) {}
But, i have a problem a parametric constructor (parametric constructor).
Like if the class looks like this :
class Test {
public void Test() {}
public void Test(String arg) {}
public void Test(String arg, String arg2) {}
I manage to compile this, but when i try to execute the parametric constructor by this code :
<%Test objTest = new Test("value");%>
I get 1 warning, and i do have a constructor that is like this :
public void Test(String arg, String arg2) {....}
C:\Program Files\Apache Tomcat 4.0\work\localhost\_\nils\slett-kode\test$jsp.java:114: Wrong number of arguments in constructor.
Test objTest = new Test("hei","had");
^
Note: C:\Program Files\Apache Tomcat 4.0\work\localhost\_\nils\slett-kode\test$jsp.java uses or overrides a deprecated API. Recompile with "-deprecation" for details.
1 error, 1 warning
Can anyone please help me, or tell me if i can have parametric constructor in JSP ?

If it's still not working right, I'd suggest making sure that you don't have an old copy of the class file somewhere on your box that might be accessed instead of the one you really want it to. But yes, the following code executes fine..
class Test
    public Test()
        System.out.println("In Test()");
    public Test(String arg)
        System.out.println("In Test(String)");
    public Test(String arg1, String arg2)
        System.out.println("In Test(String, String)");
    public static void main(String[] argv)
        Test test = new Test();
        Test test2 = new Test("hello");
        Test test3 = new Test("hello", "world");
}And outputs the lines
In Test()
In Test(String)
In Test(String, String)
