Re: How can i call a servlet method from another servlet

[Ernie V]

To call a servlet from another servlet, you need to get a reference to
the servlet that you want to call by using the ServletContext. The servlet
that you want to call from other servlets must put a reference to itself
in the servlet context. Use getAttribute() and getAttribute()
methods to accomplish this. This is usually done in the init() method of
the callable servlet:
 public void init(ServletConfig cfg) throws ServletException
 {
  super.init(cfg);
  // Add this servlet to the context
  getServletContext().setAttribute("callableServlet", this);
 }
Then put this in the calling servlet:
CallableServlet cs =
    (CallableServlet)getServletContext().getAttribute("callableServlet");
Now you can use the reference "cs" to invoke methods in the
callable servlet.
