For my part, I make the same thing as Steven, because I really
don't see why you will want different behaviour with GET and POST
method. Can you give us an example of a situation in which you
want to do that.

Or perhaps you just didn't appreciate those explanations. What
the
default service() does is very nice, farming requests out to
appropriate doXXX() methods. So when you want to do different
things
with GET and POST (or whatever) HTTP methods, it's very nice. And
still it's very easy to handle the case when they do the same
thing.
Perhaps you've only worked with servlets that do the same thing
with
GET and POST. But that doesn't mean that 99% of applications work
that way. And if you ever have to change, it'll be a lot easier
if
you had just left service() alone in the first place.
In addition, not having heard a compelling argument for not
overriding
service() is *not* a compelling argument *for* overriding
service().
