>From Java Coffee Break Vol 3, Issue 10
Interview with Duane K. Fields, and Mark A. Kolb, on JSP
Q: How do you see JSP in relation to Java servlets? There seems
to be a fair bit of overlap between the two. Are there some
situations where JSP is preferable to servlets, and vice versa?
A: Mark - Well, JSPs ARE servlets really. JSP code gets parsed,
turned into a Java source file, and compiled into a servlet
class on the fly. However, it is useful architecturally to
speak of them as separate beasts. I recommend using servlets
for application control only, deferring all content generation
to the JSPs. For example, to display a record from a database
you should direct the request at a servlet which collects the
data into a bean and forwards the request onto a JSP page for
display. Coders can work on servlets, web developers can work
on the JSPs.
