Jsp as a stream in a servlet

Question

hello,
I have to create a text file with the result of a jsp. So,
I have to execute a jsp inside a servlet (I have the URL) and have to get the result in a stream, read the stream line by line and create this file in a text format.
Any ideas ? I am a beginner in J2EE. Thanks by advance.

OUF : for whom who are interrested, I found THE/ONE solution to my problem. This code export the result of a jsp page to the filesystem.
URL url = RequestUtils.absoluteURL(request, currentBody);
URLConnection conn = WebUtils.openURL(request, url);
WebUtils.exportFile(conn, fileName);
- currentBody is a relative url string,
- RequestUtils come from the org.apache.struts.util package,
- WebUtils is a personnal class, with those methods :
public static URLConnection openURL(HttpServletRequest request,
               URL url) throws IOException {
          URLConnection conn = null;
          conn = url.openConnection();
          conn.setAllowUserInteraction(false);
          conn.setDoInput(true);
          conn.setDoOutput(false);
          if ((conn instanceof HttpURLConnection)
          && request.getRequestedSessionId() != null
          && request.isRequestedSessionIdFromCookie()) {
          StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer("JSESSIONID=");
          sb.append(request.getRequestedSessionId());
          conn.setRequestProperty("Cookie", sb.toString());
          conn.connect();
          return conn;
     public static void exportFile(URLConnection conn, String fileURL) throws IOException {
          StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
          BufferedInputStream is = new BufferedInputStream(conn.getInputStream());
          BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
          FileWriter out = new FileWriter(new File(fileURL));
          String line = "";
          while((line = in.readLine()) != null) { 
          out.write(line);
          in.close();
          out.close();
See you soon, I guess some other problems are coming...
