Why javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet is serializable ?

As per serialization definition if super class implements java.io.Serializable then all sub classes are also get that behaviour.
while coming to Servlets : javax.servlet.GenericServlet implents java.io.Serializable and this servlet class is super class for javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet and this also implemts java.io.Serializable. Is there any specific reason ?

Quoting a reply from the link below:
>
Technically, I believe the servlet container is allowed to "passivate" the servlet object to disk, in a similar way that EJB session beans can be. So you're correct to ask the question if your app will fail due to non-serializable fields.
In practise, I've never heard of a container doing this, so it's really just legacy baggage from the bad old days of early J2EE. I wouldn't worry about it.

  • Service method in javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet

    Hi All,
    I have a doubt in the service method of javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
    There are two service methods in the javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.
    one is with protected and other is with public access specifier.
    In the javadoc it is said that public service method dispatches client requests to the protected service method.
    Why this type of design is required.
    Instead of having a two service methods, Is it not possible to have a single service method and attain the functionality intended.
    Are there any advantages by having two service methods.
    I think there may be some idea/functionality behind these for having two service methods , which I am not able to understand.
    Would be greatful , if someone can throw light on this .
    Thanks,
    Dhanasekaran.

    This is just a theory, but here goes:
    The public service() method takes arguments of ServletRequest and ServletResponse, presumably because that's the signature that the non-HTTP specific servlet engine requires.
    The protected service() method of HttpServlet takes arguments of HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse and includes HTTP specific functions.
    My guess is that the public service() method either casts the arguments to the Http objects or does work to create the Http objects before calling the protected method.

  • Tomcat 5 can�t find javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet

    Hi.
    I don�t know if this is a simple question or not, but i didn�t find anything solving this problem and
    i�m new to tomcat......
    I�m trying to deploy my web application in my system. (Windows XP , j2sdk1.4.2_02, jakarta Tomcat 5, jakarta struts 1.1 and jakarta taglibs 1.1).No problems while compiling the .java classes and checked all the .jar files that my application needs to work (or that is what I think). I expand my .war file at /webapps on tomcat directory and startup Tomcat. Tomcat starts up but while starting I get the following errors...

    it seems like C:\softProyecto\Tomcat5\conf\Catalina\localhost\admin.xml (C:\softproyecto\tomcat5 = tomcat�s home directory) needs javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet. And that comes from a Tomcat .jar file, i think.

    "...The CLASSPATH is ignored by Tomcat, of course. AND javac. AND java. AND Eclipse. AND NetBeans. AND JBuilder. And just about everything else in the Java universe..."
    What I mean by this, of course, is that each of these requires you to set the CLASSPATH in the way they expect. None of them even looks for a system environment variable named CLASSPATH. You can waste a lot of time thinking that your CLASSPATH is "all set", but it's not.
    Tomcat assumes the following for your Web app's CLASSPATH:
    (0) The JDK rt.jar, of course,
    (1) All the JARs in TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib,
    (2) All the JARs in your WEB-INF/lib,
    (3) All the .class files in your WEB-INF/classes
    That's it. (Maybe one or two others, but those are the important ones.)
    Eclipse and NetBeans have their own way to set CLASSPATH for each project. You'll have to learn how for those IDEs.
    The CLASSPATH is still vitally important. The system environment variable just isn't part of it. - MOD

  • Javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet

    I'm in netbeans and I've created a new 'General Java Application' - I'm trying to import the package above but the netbeans can't find it.
    I'm guessing this is because the J2EE packages aren't included in a General Java Application - can somebody explain to me how this works? and how I can get this package imported into my project? thanks.

    Herko_ter_Horst wrote:
    The Java Standard Edition API will be available by default.
    Servlets are part of the Enterprise Edition, as you rightly assumed.
    Netbeans most likely has the ability to create a "Web Application Project" or some such. I expect such a project to include the Servlet API.this is helpful, thanks. and it's also helpful that Netbeans can provide the EE API in the case where I choose to create a web app. But what if I wasn't using an IDE and I wanted to be able to access the EE API - is there an easy way to include all the necessary libraries? is there an index somewhere that associates SE/EE/ME classes with their containing .jar files?

  • ClassCastException: javax.servlet.http.NoBodyResponse

    Hi all,
    I Have an EAR containing a web application containing a bunch of servlets and an applet accessed through jnlp. When I start the applet, everything works perfectly well, all the functionnalities work. But in my log file, I get about 4 exceptions (always the same) and sometime later on (using the applet) I get one or two more. I know some people on the net had the same problem in various situations but I never found replies to their posts in the archives.
    So it runs on sun JSAS 9.0, Windows XP64.
    This is the exceptionx I get in the server log just when webstart starts:
    (sorry, it is long and ugly in this small text box).
    --> The "com.zerobase..." line is just because I override service() and call super() there.

  • Package javax.servlet.http does not exist

    Hello All,
    A few problems here
    1. My classpath doesnt seem to work.:
    .;"C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\lib\servlet-api.jar"
    2. As a result, i get many errors in my simple code, but there are still a few that are not related to javac not recognizing the servlet api.
    I also tried setting the classpath at the command line (event hough its temporary)
    set classpath="C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\lib\servlet-api.jar"
    but the servlet package is still not recognized
    I have 2 classes, one to read the database connection details from a file and another class, my servlet.

    Hi,
    The file servlet-api.jar / servlet.jar is not available in your classpath.
    To compile an Servlet you need the jar file to be in classpath.
    The jar file can be found in your webserver / application server lib folder.
    Regards,

    import javax.servlet.*;
    import javax.servlet.Http.*;
    class login
    error is package javax.servlet.Http.*; does not exist.
