How can i call a servlet from a servlet ?

Hello,
Can i call a Servlet from within a Servlet ?
and is it "right thing" to Do ?
Thanks

JMO, but I wouldn't do it like this.
Don't have a remote object like a servlet doing database queries for your app. That will mean TWO network hops for every query if the database resides on another machine. The network is the biggest bottleneck you've got.
Write a JavaBean that does the database stuff for you and just have the first servlet instantiate it when it needs it. A Bean has a better chance of being reused, too. Write a TableGateway or DAO for your object.
Or write an EJB to do it.
The only time I've done a servlet-to-servlet connection like that was for one servlet running in a DMZ that would authenticate a user and then forward the request to another servlet running inside the second firewall.
I wouldn't encapsulate database query logic in a servlet like that. JMO - MOD

How can I call an ".asp" from a Servlet?

I want to make a call to an asp page from my servlet. If i use the conventional way of doing it as follows:
RequestDispatcher rd = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("http://localhost:8080/abc.asp");
rd.forward(request, response)
It gives me IllegalArgumentException saying that the "Path must be absolute". And if i give the relative path like
RequestDispatcher rd = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/abc.asp");
rd.forward(request, response)
In this case it takes me to the asp page, but gives some ClassNotFoundException - images.
I do not understand what class it is looking for and where to get that?
So Why am i not able to call an ASP from Servlet, Any clue??

What are you trying to accomplish? A redirect is one of the only ways to successfully go from a Servlet to an ASP. For example:response.sendRedirect("http://server:9090/abc.asp?name=value");This is mainly because when you forward, your actually sending the request and response objects under the current servlet context to be processed by another JSP/servlet in the same (sometimes cross) context.
When interacting with ASP's your actually communicating between web containers (one which is Java based the other VB based).
When you use:RequestDispatcher rd = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("http://localhost:8080/abc.asp");
rd.forward(request, response) Your telling the servlet to send it's contents outside the web container where they cannot exist as such (even though you are pointing to your own JSP server, it's the "http://" that makes it assume your trying to get out).
Using: RequestDispatcher rd = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/abc.asp");
rd.forward(request, response) is fine but what is processing your asp in your Java Web Server?
The best way to mix JSP/Servlets with ASP (in my opinion others may debate it if they please) is using messaging like XML. Trying to share sessions between ASP and Java is quite messy and to much effort for a 1 to 1 communication option.
Back to an earlier question, what is processing your asp files in the Java web server? If you have something processing them (like ChilliSoft) then check the docs to see if it supports session sharing between JSP/Servlet - ASP.

How can I Call the MainVI from its SubVI, and this happen recursively?

Hi All,
How can I Call the MainVI from its SubVI, and this happen recursively?
Actually, LAbView 7.1 doesn't support recurssion?
Plz help me out!

Dear GerdW,
Thanks a lot 2 all of u guys,for all the brilliant responses.
Actually, my basic aim is to call the Main VI, containing a SubVI.....
Now, I want to call my main VI from this SubVI...recursively!!!!!..but whenever I tried to put the MainVI in this SubVI..an error message pops out saying recursive calling is not possible.
I also tried using "Call by reference" but tht also didn't worked...an d error is somewat like...VI is invalid..or type matching..or state matching error.
Here, Im attaching the snapshot of the MainVI... Im calling the SUBvi from it... It is running GOOD n FINE...
But prob arrives when I call the Main from the SUBvi, which looks like same as MainVI(with little differences).
I hope, Im clear in my words n not being ambigous.
Plz, correct me where ever im wrong.
Thank You.

Can I call a "function" from a servlet?

A few of my servlets need to perform about the same computations (have large sections of identical code).
It would save some disk space to be able to call a procedure from different servlets.
Can this be done? How?
Thank you all.

Since Java is an object oriented programming language, you should use it's concepts to implement a 'basic' class and than extend it. This means: Create a class that contains the basic procedures (you will never create an instance of this class) and then create all the serlvet classes by extending the 'mother' class. Like this you have the common code once in the 'mother' class and the specific code in the specific servlets.

How can we call actionscript functions from js

hi
how can we call Action script function from js file . i
tried ExternalInterface. add Callback() .but it throws an error .is
there any other chance to call action script method .thnx in
advance

angadala,
some people have found it is good to include the full
qualification path, ie
if (flash.external.ExternalInterface.available)
flash.external.ExternalInterface.addCallback("ext_method_name",int_method_name);
} // if (flash.external.ExternalInterface.available)
There are also browser differences which affect how you find
the Flex application object which are documented at

How can I call a variable from another class

hi
If I have two classes : one and two
In class two I have a variable called : action
In class one I want to check what is the value of action.
How can I call action?

Thank you scorbett
what you told me worked fine, but my problem is that MyClass2 is an application by itself that I don't want to be executed.
Creating myClass2 as in the following:
MyClass2 myClass2 = new MyClass2();
[/code]
executes myClass2.
Can I prevent the exectuion of MyClass2, or is there another way to call the variable (action)?

How can I call RFC FM from webdynpro application for ABAP? Please help!

am doing same thing for my current SRM implementation.I am taking data to SRM server from another R/3 server .
This is solution I have used
1) First of all I have made ABAP connection in SM59 .
Go to SM59 .In ABAP Connection creat ABAP connection with system with which u want communicate .
Eg I am connection with Systems PB1.
So i developed Connection call PB1CLNT800.
2) In my requirement I have taken data in my context from another r/3,
I have give called RFC in my supply function of node.
Call to RFC is as usual.
In my case,
CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_MATNR'
DESTINATION 'PB1CLNT800'
TABLES
IT_MATNR = IT_MATNR.
Onwards I have read my itab IT_MATNR and populated data to context.
Hope solution will serve your purpose.
Give point if it works .If any problem i have other ways.

How can I call ora:appendToList from java snippet?

I want to assign a list of user from User Task A to User Task B, but I don't know how to call ora:appendToList from java snippet, and are there any better ways to solve this situation?

Hi Rakesh,
Thank you for your help.
For issue 1, for example, user jcooper apply a vacation, and the request goes to his manager jstein,
and jstein dispatch the task to mtwain and rsteven for parallel approval, (this is just for example, in
some case, the manager can use the reassign function), so I use simple workflow pattern for manager approval,
and parallel workflow pattern for parallel approval, but in my situation, the user for parallel approval is
uncertain, need select by manager jstein, so I want to know how to assign the user from java code to bpel process.
The following is how I solve the problem now, put the user list string in flexString1 of simple workflow task,
then allocate the array for parallel assigneeUsers, then use setVariableData assign the value, it can do the job,
but the code is awful, I want to know how to do it in some better way.
<assign name="copyPayloadFromTask">
<copy>
<from expression="ora:countNodes( 'inputVariable','task','/task:task /task:assigneeUsers')"/>
<to variable="currentLength"/>
</copy>
</assign>
<sequence>
<bpelx:exec name="Java_Embedding_2" language="Java" version="1.4"><![CDATA[
Element ele=(Element)getVariableData("inputVariable","task","/task:task/task:flexString1");
String users=ele.getNodeValue();
String[] userArray=users.split(",");
setVariableData("arrayLength",new Integer(userArray.length));
]]>
</bpelx:exec>
<while name="While_1" condition=" (bpws:getVariableData('currentLength')) < (bpws:getVariableData('arrayLength')) ">
<assign name="Assign_1">
<copy>
<from expression="ora:appendToList('inputVariable','task',' /task:task/task:assigneeUsers', string( 'test'))"/>
<to variable="oraBPMTemporaryVariable"/>
</copy>
<copy>
<from expression="ora:countNodes( 'inputVariable','task','/task:task /task:assigneeUsers')"/>
<to variable="currentLength"/>
</copy>
</assign>
</while>
<bpelx:exec name="Java_Embedding_1" language="Java" version="1.4"><![CDATA[
Element ele=(Element)getVariableData("inputVariable","task","/task:task/task:flexString1");
String users=ele.getNodeValue();
String[] userArray=users.split(",");
for(int i=0;i<userArray.length;i++){
setVariableData("inputVariable","task","/task:task/task:assigneeUsers["+(i+1)+"]",userArray);

How can i call a procedure from the app

hi
i have an establish connection to a database (MS SQL SERVER 2000) , i can get data from the tabels by sql statments.
i have stored procedure in the database , how dan i run procedure with parameters from the app.
lets say i have one procedure that takes one parameter "city_name"
procedure delete_city ( @city_name char(100) )
how can i run it
thanks ahead
johny

Hi,
Assuming con is the connection object:
Assuming city_name is the name of the city to be passed to the stored proceduer
Step 1: Create a callable statement object e.g. CallableStatement cs = con.preparecall("{delete_city(?)}");
Step 2: Set the IN paramter of the stored procedure e.g. cs.setString(1, city_name);
Step 3: Execute the callable statement e.g. ResultSet rs = cStat.executeQuery(); //assuming only one resultset is returned by your stored procedure
Step 4: Process the resultset as you do for getting data from your other sql statements.
This is a very basic way to execute a stored procedure. The complexity lies in executing stored procedures :
1) which return a value
2) which will result in multiple result sets
3) having IN, OUT and INOUT parameters
4) a combination of any or all of the above
I would suggest you look up the JDBC API to get more details.
