Extend a Java Class Inside a JSP Page?

Hello all. I'm not sure if I am thinking about this right. But what I have is a BaseClass that all of my other classes Extend. I'm inside a JSP page and want to use all of the functionality of that BaseClass. Is there anyway I can EXTEND A CLASS INSIDE A JSP PAGE or am I smoking crack?

Its an attribute of the page directive
"extends="package.class"
The fully qualified name of the superclass of the Java class this JSP page will be compiled to. Use this attribute cautiously, as it can limit the JSP container's ability to provide a specialized superclass that improves the quality of the compiled class. "

How can i call java class file in jsp page

Hai,
i wants to call .class file in jsp page.
my class file is in C:\jsdk\bin.
Thanks

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "calling a class file", but I'm going to assume that you want to do something like the following in your page:
<%
MyClass myClass = new MyClass();
myClass.someMethod();
%>etc
If that's the case, then all you have to do is make sure that the class is in the servlet engine's classpath. You'll probably also need to include an appropriate import statement at the top of the page.
Hope that helps.

Loading Java Class File in JSP page

I'm trying to load a java class file from a jsp page.
(e.g. MyFile.java <-- Source "MyFile.class<--Class file of MyFile.java")
jsp page
<%@ include file = "MyFile.class" %>
<HTML> // HTML Tags are here
MyFile.java
A normal java source file that has "public static void main" in it.
My jsp page can display it's contents, 'except' for showing e.g. "1235%%215648%%public%%$$@##" through out the page...
My guess is that it can't display my java class file..
Can anyone please help me solve this problem of mine ?
Thanks in advance : )

Recompilation of java class invalidates taglib jsp page?

Hi everyone,
          I have a JSP page which calls a custom tag library. On freshly compiling
          everything and
          calling the JSP page from a browser for the first time the output is as
          expected.
          However when ever I recompile one of the classes that get called anywhere in
          the tag
          library call the tag no longer works (internal error from the server).
          To get it to work I have to change the jsp page so that it recompiles.
          Weblogic server 5.1 (no service patches yet) running on NT server SP6a.
          Any ideas?
          MTIA
          Craig


p.s
          The following errors are in the log file.
          Is this another class casting problem?
          Does any one have any explanations?

How to Generate a Java file for a JSP Page

Hi ,

I am working on a JSP page which nearly consists of 4000 lines of code.
I need to debug the file , but weblogic server is not generating the java file for the JSP pages .
Please let me know how can i genertae Java file for the jsp pages ??

JSPs are compiled into servlets automatically and those classes are stored in WEB-INF/classes folder. Servlet engine handles servlets.

How to use self-defined class in a jsp page

Hello:
I defined a class for displaying purpose, which is in the different folder(WEB-INF/classes) from my JSP page.
In my JSP page, I want to create an instance of my class and display something, while I get the following error: "
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
An error occurred at line: 12 in the jsp file: /htmls/templateIntro.jsp
Generated servlet error:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file
/home/jiao/jsp_webserver/tomcat/work/Standalone/localhost/syllabus/htmls/templateIntro_jsp.java:72: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : class Display
location: class org.apache.jsp.templateIntro_jsp
Display display=new Display(out);"
How can I solve this problem? Should I redefine my classpath or there are some other actions I should take.
T.I.A.
Oriental Spirit

Here is what I have done:
1) in Display.java, add one line "package tools;" on the top, and compile it to
create Display.class.
2) create a new folder at
/home/jiao/jsp_webserver/tomcat/webapps/syllabus/WEB-INF/classes
named tools and then put the Display.class into the newly created folder.
3) in my jsp page, add " import="tools.*"
But it still doesn't work.
Any ideas? T.I.A.

who ist the Problem ???
thanks

Hi Orient,
Actually <jsp:useBean /> takes fully qualified class name.
so your code for <jsp:useBean /> should be like this
<jsp:useBean id="app" scope="page" class="TestPackage.Test"/>

Unable to import a java class in a jsp file

Hi,
I am trying to import a java class in my jsp.
------------------jsp---------------
<jsp:useBean id="form" class="com.company.portlets.searchApps.object.SearchOBJ" scope="request" />
<jsp:setProperty name="form" property="*" />
<input type="TEXT" name="projectID" value='<%= form.getProjectID() %>'>
When I run the above JSP, it says that class 'com.company.portlets.searchApps.object.SearchOBJ' cannot be found.
Why?
My project structure looks like this:
Project
+Application Sources
++com.company.portlets.searchApps.object
+++SearchOBJ.java
+Web Content
++htdocs
+++searchappsportlet
++++SearchAppsPortletShowPage.jsp
++WEB-INF
+++index.jsp
+Resources
++SearchApps.deploy
Please advice...thanks!

The way that JDeveloper organized the files was like this:
C:\jdev1012\jdev\mywork\WksSearchApps\Project\classes\com\company\portlets\searchAPPS\object\SearchOBJ.class
I am assuming that JDeveloper puts the file where they are suppose to be...if not, how do I change that?
thanks,
hussain

I used tag to show PDF file inside my JSP page, It is working properly in IE but nothing shows in Mozilla. What should I do?

I've used to display a PDF file inside my JSP page. It is working fine in IE. However, many of users of this application are using Mozilla and the platform is Ubuntu so it is vital that the file is shown in Mozilla as well. How can I solve this problem.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I run my jsp page

Such conditional code will only work in IE and not in other browsers like Firefox.

How i can make my own connection in java source of a jsp page

How i can make my own connection in java source of a jsp page (How to get connection from JNDI datasource address) ?
imagine that i have a rowset in a web page , now i want to do some operation using
plain JDBC , so i will need a connection object.
I tried to get one of my rowsets connection but it return null ?
what is best way to retrive a connection from JNDI datasource that we define for our project?
for example if i have
myRowSet.setDataSourceName("java:comp/env/jdbc/be");
in web page constructor
now i want a pure connection from the same datasource ? JNDI
Thank you

It is not hard to get your own connection from datasource.
in your case you need to do like the the following code.
i provide sample to show you how to catch the exception and create an statement .
Connection con =null;
try{
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource)ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/be");
con = ds.getConnection();
java.sql.Statement st =con.createStatement();
}catch(SQLException sqlex){
sqlex.printStackTrace();
sqlex.getNextException().printStackTrace();
catch(NamingException nex){
nex.printStackTrace();

Using java class files in JSP

hi everyone,
i am trying to import a java file in a JSP page..
how do i do this???

hi,
<%@page import="yourpackagename.*" %>

Access Java class in my JSP/JSF page and conditionally open a new browser

When the user clicks on a button in my JSP page, I'd like to launch a new browser and display certain things in that browser window while leaving the original browser window open.
My thought was to invoke a javascript method in 'onLoad' which would determine if the new window needs to be launched.
This is kinda what my page looks like:
<jsp:root version="1.2" ................>
    <jsp:directive.page import="java.util.*, com.test.Configuration" contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8"/>
    <f:view>
     <ui:body binding="#{Page1.body1}" id="body1" onLoad="launchWindow();">
     </ui:body>
   </f:view>
   <script type="text/javascript">
        function launchWindow(){
         if (Configuration.openWindow()) {
          window.open("hello.jsp", "newWindow", 'toolbar,width=400,height=400');
    </script>
</jsp:root>My problem is that the call to "Configuration.openWindow()" does not resolve correctly. If I remove that call and simply make a call to "window.open()" all works. But once I put the condition in, nothing happens. I do not see an exception in my browser window but a new browser window does not open.
Is my syntax correct. Can I make a call to the static method 'openWindow()' in my class 'Configuration.java'.
thanks,
tsc

I have made some changes so that I do not directly access the 'Configuration' class in my javascript.
I have a hidden field on my form and when the user clicks the button, in my back bean, I set a value for the hidden field. In the javascript function 'launchWindow()' I check if a value has been set for the hidden field and if yes, I open a new window.
<ui:body binding="#{Page1.body1}" id="body1" onLoad="launchWindow(document.forms[0]);">
<h:inputText id="hiddenField" value="#{formBean.hiddenValue}" />
<script type="text/javascript">
        function launchWindow(form){
            alert("in lw");
            var test = form["form1:hiddenField"].value;
            alert("got test");
            if (test != "")
                window.open("hello.jsp", "newWindow", 'toolbar,width=400,height=400');
            alert ("done test");
</script>When my page is first loaded, the launchWindow() is called and all the alerts popup as expected.
When I click on the button (the back bean sets the value on the hidden field), my page is reloaded but this time its blank.
Any ideas as to why this maybe the case?
thanks,
tsc

Tomcat 6 Calling a Java Servlet from a JSP Page

web.xml
<servlet>
      <servlet-name>HelloWorld</servlet-name>
      <servlet-class>jservlets.HelloWorld</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>HelloWorld</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/servlet/HelloWorld</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>      ******************************
HelloWorld.java can be compiled by using javac.
Once compiled, HelloWorld.class would be moved to the jservlets folder.
FYI, coding the above url-pattern results in:
HTTP Status 404
The requested resource (/HelloWorldExample/servlet/jservlets.HelloWorld) is not available
The following url-pattern in the web.xml file permits the servlet to be executed but results in a null pointer exception:
<servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>HelloWorld</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/ </url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>      **************************************************

This problem was resolved.
In hello.jsp
ACTION="servlet/jservlets.HelloWorld">
was replaced with
ACTION="servlet/HelloWorld">
