Re: external variable

[Peter Dolukhanov]

you can use application.setAttribute("variablename", Object value);   ie Integer globalVariable = new Integer(15); application.setAttribute("global", globalVariable);   to retrieve it you would   Integer globalVariable = (Integer)application.getAttribute("global");   etc.. this can be passed on between pages   Regard,   Pete Dolukhanov ----- Original Message ----- From: Luis Javier Beltran To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2001 10:18 PM Subject: external variable Hi all,   Is there a way I can define an external variable that can be accessed from any other method I define in a JSP?   I want to create a method that prints something, but I don't want to pass the 'out' variable as a parameter. I want to copy it to a 'global' variable, so I can call it from within the other method.   Thanks for your help!   Luis Javier
