Hello,
I am doing the homework for servlet_basics2 chapter from the WebProgramming
Basics course. I'm trying to declare a variable of ServletContext class
type as follows:
ServletContext servletcontext = request.getServletContext();
servcontext.setAttribute("Country", "USA");
I am getting an error as follows: The method getServletContext() is
undefined for the type HttpServletRequest.
The example program "hello_scope_context" has the exact same declaration
and it works fine, but when I declare it, it's giving me this error. Can
you help? Thanks. Here is my code:
------------------
package hwservlets;
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class GreetingServlet extends HttpServlet {
@Override
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType("text/html");
response.setBufferSize(8192);
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
// Set Servlet wide scope attribute to be accessible by any servlet
ServletContext servletcontext = request.getServletContext();
servcontext.setAttribute("Country", "USA");
-----------------------------
