In general, the servlet and JWeb object models differ significantly. If in
writing your JWeb pages you've been careful to separate content from
presentation and, in particular, you've limited the use of Oracle's Html
package and the <WRB_INC> tag, a certain degree of code reuse is possible. This
could be the case as well if your database access is Jdbc-based (rather than
PL/SQL wrapper-based).
Unfortunately, JWeb development is generally tied to the above mentioned
Oracle-specific technologies...
Oracle says the next release of OAS will support standard servlets and JSP 1.0.
You may wait for OAS to support these technologies and/or use a web
server that supports "real" servlets now.
In either case, I'd say something's clear: we ought to forget about JWeb,
PL/SQL wrappers and friends: the future belongs to servlets and JSP; this is
true even for OAS.
