Error handling

[Anonymous]

Hi all

        First of all, Servlets are the best and so much fun to work with.
But I seem to be missing something in my overall understanding of error
handling for Servlets.  How would I write the catch routine so that the
Servlet is not unloaded when an error occurs.  I've included a part of my
class.

Any other examples would be great also.

Thanks.

public class Login extends HttpServlet {

        Connection con = null;

        public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException {
                super.init(config);
                try {
                        // Load the Sybase driver
                        Class.forName("com.sybase.jdbc.SybDriver");
                        // Connect to db
                        con =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sybase:Tds:scote:2638","userid","password"
);
                }
                catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
                        throw new UnavailableException(this, "Couldn't load
database driver");
                }
                catch (SQLException e) {
                        throw new UnavailableException(this, "Couldn't get
db connection");
                }
        }
.......
}
