What is Servlet or Web Servlet?



                                                                                                                                            Next Chapter

It is a predefined Java Interface that provide  HttpServlet class that exists under javax.http.servlet package. This class will be compiled by Java Compiler and executed by JVM under  Servlet container by Web Server.
A Servlet container is used to manage the servlet code that is written on the java programming language of an application, Webserver is only used to manage static files (HTML, JS, CSS, Jquery) and JSP Web page but dynamic content will be managed by Servlet Container itself.
hence It is also called a Web-based Java class.
Servlet Class will be executed under Servlet container to Web Server.
Servlet class Managed By HttpServlet  Class in Java
Syntax of Servlet:-
Class Classname extends HttpServlet
{
}
Servlet Example of Class:-
class A extends HttpServlet
{
   public void init()
  {
   }
    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response)   //For HttpGet
   {

   }
  public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response)   // For HttpPost
  {
  }
public void destroy()
{
}
}
Servlet Life Cycle:-
Servlet Use Four Different State to Perform Operation
1)  Loading:- When we call the Servlet class then the servlet object will be loaded under Web Container.
2) Initializing:-  After Successfully loading the servlet object data will be initialized under memory and call init();
3)  Handling Request:-  When we request a servlet from client to server then it will check the service method if it gets then doGet() will be called otherwise doPost() will be called.
4) Destroy:-  This method will be called implicit when the servlet objects will be destroyed.



Live Exmple of Servlet:-

OPEN ECLIPSE---->  FILE ----> NEW ---> Other---> Dynamic Web Project---> Enter project Name--> Modify Server----> Next---> Go into Java Resources---->create package---> Create Servlet class

package scs;

}import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import javax.servlet.annotation.WebServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
@WebServlet("/Hello")
public class Hello extends HttpServlet {
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException
{
PrintWriter out= response.getWriter();
out.print("<h1>Hello World</h1>");
}
Now I am Creating another Servlet Class to Calculate Addition Program:-
package scs;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.annotation.WebServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
/**
 * Servlet implementation class Hello
 */
@WebServlet("/Hello")
public class Hello extends HttpServlet {
    public Hello() {
        super();
            }
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
int a=100,b=200,c;
c=a+b;
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.print("Result is ="+c);
}
}


Another Example of Servlet class to get and post elements?
package scs;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import javax.servlet.annotation.WebServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
@WebServlet("/Ram")
public class A extends HttpServlet{
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException
{
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.write("<h1>Welcome in Servlet</h1>");
out.write("<form action='' method='post'>");
out.write("<input type='text' name='txtname' placeholder='enter name' /><br><br>");
out.write("<input type='text' name='txtmobile' placeholder='enter mobile' /><br><br>");
out.write("<input type='submit' name='btnsubmit' value='Submit' />");
out.write("</form>");
}
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException
{
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
String name = request.getParameter("txtname");
String mobile = request.getParameter("txtmobile");
out.write("name is "+name);
out.write("mobile no is"+mobile);
}
}



                                                                                                                                        Next Chapter

Uncontrolled form input in React-JS

  Uncontrolled form input in React-JS? If we want to take input from users without any separate event handling then we can uncontrolled the data binding technique. The uncontrolled input is similar to the traditional HTML form inputs. The DOM itself handles the form data. Here, the HTML elements maintain their own state that will be updated when the input value changes. To write an uncontrolled component, you need to use a ref to get form values from the DOM. In other words, there is no need to write an event handler for every state update. You can use a ref to access the input field value of the form from the DOM. Example of Uncontrolled Form Input:- import React from "react" ; export class Info extends React . Component {     constructor ( props )     {         super ( props );         this . fun = this . fun . bind ( this ); //event method binding         this . input = React . createRef ();...

JSP Page design using Internal CSS

  JSP is used to design the user interface of an application, CSS is used to provide set of properties. Jsp provide proper page template to create user interface of dynamic web application. We can write CSS using three different ways 1)  inline CSS:-   we will write CSS tag under HTML elements <div style="width:200px; height:100px; background-color:green;"></div> 2)  Internal CSS:-  we will write CSS under <style> block. <style type="text/css"> #abc { width:200px;  height:100px;  background-color:green; } </style> <div id="abc"></div> 3) External CSS:-  we will write CSS to create a separate file and link it into HTML Web pages. create a separate file and named it style.css #abc { width:200px;  height:100px;  background-color:green; } go into Jsp page and link style.css <link href="style.css"  type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"   /> <div id="abc"> </div> Exam...

JDBC using JSP and Servlet

JDBC means Java Database Connectivity ,It is intermediates from Application to database. JDBC has different type of divers and provides to communicate from database server. JDBC contain four different type of approach to communicate with Database Type 1:- JDBC-ODBC Driver Type2:- JDBC Vendor specific Type3 :- JDBC Network Specific Type4:- JDBC Client-Server based Driver  or JAVA thin driver:- Mostly we prefer Type 4 type of Driver to communicate with database server. Step for JDBC:- 1  Create Database using MYSQL ,ORACLE ,MS-SQL or any other database 2   Create Table using database server 3   Create Form according to database table 4  Submit Form and get form data into servlet 5  write JDBC Code:-     5.1)   import package    import java.sql.*     5.2)  Add JDBC Driver according to database ide tools     5.3)  call driver in program         ...
