java基础之Servlet

定义

servlet是service applet的缩写，即表示运行在服务端的应用。狭义的servlet是jdk中的一个接口，广义的解释实现了该接口的类。

继承体系

显而易见，这个体系比之前分析Spring的创建bean涉及的体系要简单的多。
接下来我们单独分析下这个体系涉及的接口

Servlet

package javax.servlet;

import java.io.IOException;

/**
 * Defines methods that all servlets must implement.
 *
 * <p>
 * A servlet is a small Java program that runs within a Web server. Servlets
 * receive and respond to requests from Web clients, usually across HTTP, the
 * HyperText Transfer Protocol.
 *
 * <p>
 * To implement this interface, you can write a generic servlet that extends
 * <code>javax.servlet.GenericServlet</code> or an HTTP servlet that extends
 * <code>javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet</code>.
 *
 * <p>
 * This interface defines methods to initialize a servlet, to service requests,
 * and to remove a servlet from the server. These are known as life-cycle
 * methods and are called in the following sequence:
 * <ol>
 * <li>The servlet is constructed, then initialized with the <code>init</code>
 * method.
 * <li>Any calls from clients to the <code>service</code> method are handled.
 * <li>The servlet is taken out of service, then destroyed with the
 * <code>destroy</code> method, then garbage collected and finalized.
 * </ol>
 *
 * <p>
 * In addition to the life-cycle methods, this interface provides the
 * <code>getServletConfig</code> method, which the servlet can use to get any
 * startup information, and the <code>getServletInfo</code> method, which allows
 * the servlet to return basic information about itself, such as author,
 * version, and copyright.
 *
 * @see GenericServlet
 * @see javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
 */
public interface Servlet {
   

    public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException;

    public ServletConfig getServletConfig();

    public void service(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse res)
            throws ServletException, IOException;

    public String getServletInfo();

    public void destroy();
}

其实jdk的介绍说的很清楚，我们现在对它总结下
1.所有的Servlets都必须实现这个接口，一个Servlets就是一个运行在web服务器中的小应用，这个应用大概干了什么勒？处理从web客户端来的Request 然后返回一个Response。
2.这个接口定义了生命周期函数，如如何初始化这个Servlets,这个Servlets如
