Question

Hi, I have a question. I have two servlets, servler A and servlet B. I wanna do this:
1)servlet A to pass a parameter to servlet B. No redirect is required.
2)servlet B to accept the parameter.
How do I do that?
Thanks

Answer 1

1)servlet A to pass a parameter to servlet B. No redirect is required.
2)servlet B to accept the parameter.I completely agree with what capitao suggested.
As U said tht u need not require a redirect functionality
U actually need to implement a proxy kind of mechanism in this case
You may also go by using HttpURLConnection Object to retrive the info by passing few parameters.
checkout an eq code down below
HttpURLConnection server = (HttpURLConnection)(new URL("http://<hostname>:<port>/servletC")).openConnection();
server.setRequestProperty("testParam","testParam");
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader( server.getInputStream() );
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader( isr );
response.setContentType( "text/html" );
PrintWriter outStr = response.getWriter();
String line = "";
while((line = in.readLine()) != null) {
outStr.println( line );
}
