Hi All,
I'm just starting out with JSP programming, coming from a background in
webdev.... I've hit a snag in including a beanlet on a page which I was
hoping someone could help me with, as I'm sure it's pretty basic!
I am including the bean on the page as follows:
<jsp:useBean id="registerbean" scope="session" class="AMCreg.register"
/>
I want to process all the data sent from a form on the previous page
(thats quite a lot of data) in this beanlet. However, because it's a
general purpose processing class, I don't know exactly what the fields
in the POST/GET data will be... Hence, I have written a procedure into
the beanlet which should process the request object, extract the data
from it and store it in the Session object for later processing.
public void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request) {
... do stuff ...
}
Now, to my mind, based on my knowledge of general servlets, this process
should be called as soon as I instantiate the beanlet on the page.
However, as far as I can see, it isn't called at all... (I have debug
lines in there which don't produce any output, which tells me that the
method is never accessed).
My question is, what am I doing wrong...? And am I approaching this in
the right way in the first place? I have assumed all along that JSP
beanlets have full access to the HttpServletRequest object... am I
correct in this assumption?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Ja,
Rob
