Servlet使用基本步骤及功能实现

Servlet（Server Applet）是Java Servlet的简称，称为服务器端小程序，用Java代码进行编写，具有独立于平台和协议的特性，主要功能在于交互式地浏览和生成数据，生成动态Web内容。

Servlet是指任何实现了这个Servlet接口的类，运行于支持Java的应用服务器中。

/**
 * 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

Servlet使用步骤

1. 编写⼀个Java类实现Servlet的接口
2. 在web.xml中，配置Servlet
3. 访问servlet

//1. 编写⼀个Java类实现Servlet的接口

import java.io.IOException;

import javax.servlet.Servlet;
import javax.servlet.ServletConfig;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.ServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.ServletResponse;

public class HelloServlet implements Servlet {
    @Override
    public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException {

    }

    @Override
    public ServletConfig getServletConfig() {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
/**
 * ⽤来处理客户的请求，并且对请求作出响应的⽅法
 */
    public void service(ServletRequest servletRequest, ServletResponse servletResponse) throws ServletException, IOException {
        System.out.println("⼀个servlet程序。。");
        //把服务器的数据 返回给浏览器显示
        // 向⻚⾯输出⼀个HelloServlet字符串:
        servletResponse.getWriter().print("<font color='red'>hello servlet</font>");
    }

    @Override
    public String getServletInfo() {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public void destroy() {

    }
    //省略剩下⽅法，采⽤默认实现
}

//2. 在web.xml中，配置Servlet
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee"
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_4_0.xsd"
         version="4.0">
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>helloServlet</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>com.byc.servlet.HelloServlet</servlet-class>
    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>helloServlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/hello</url-pattern>        <!--匹配路径-->
    </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
