Hi,
I think it is because ther are two ways in which strings are handled in
Java. When u give -- session.putValue("somename","0"); it doesn't create a
new String object in heap but in pool of literal strings. But when u
specify --
session.puValue("somename",new String("0")); it creates the object in the
heap as well as in the pool and the object handle points to the object
created in the heap....
So it might be the case that while using the getvalue() of session
object...it searches in the heap for the required object which won't be
there if u have specified
-- session.putValue("somename","0");
Hope it's useful,
Niraj

Subject: regarding putValue and getValue
hi
I am using session.putValue("somename","0");
initially i am directing the response to a jsp and there i am using
getValue
and it works fine but again when the servlet is invoked then again i do
session.puValue("somename","0");
and when this is sent to another JSP then it doesn't work
although if i do
session.puValue("somename",new String("0")); then it works ...any ideas
why????
Regards
Amar Deep Singh
