Hi,
In JSDK 2.1 RequestDispatcher is used to invoke a new servlet with the same
request object that was received by the original servlet. If that is what
you need to do in JSDK 2.0, then you have to do:
SomeServlet srv = (SomeServlet)
getServletConfig().getServletContext().getServlet("/SomeServlet");
You can then invoke a method in the servlet, like:
srv.blah(request, response);
Note, however, that this method is deprecated in JSDK 2.1 onwards, so if you
use it, you will need to change it to the requestdispatcher method whenever
you switch to Tomcat (which uses JSDK 2.1).
Also note that you have to know the type of the servlet that you are calling
- can't call just any servlet - unless you use reflection. Here at my
company I wrote a 'base' servlet that uses reflection to call any number of
other servlets when it is done with its own processing. All our servlets
inherit this ability. What this allows us to do is that if we have a big
form, multiple servlets can act on that form, each consuming only the form
elements it is interested in. Works out in a pretty nice way.
