Hi all,
I have written a service servlet that other servlets can invoke to perform
special functionality. I chose to write it as a GenericServlet and not just as
a regular class so that I can use the log() feature to examine my jserv.log file
in Apache (we all know how painful it is to debug run-time problems with
servlets).... anyway, I use (from Hunter)
MyServlet servlet = (MyServlet)getServletContext().getServlet("MyServlet");
in the calling servlet to grab a handle to the service servlet, it compiles
fine, but I get a run-time error ClassNotFoundException in Jserv.log.
So, obviously I need to force the webserver to instantiate the service object
prior to using getServlet.... HOW do I do this?
I am still a novice with servlets... If there is a more appropriate way entirely
different that this, please let me know!
PS I am working under the assumption that once I get the handle to the service
object that I can invoke it's methods and pass and return objects between the
two.
