Hi :-) I think the following can work:
client-side server-side
Applet -> service/doGet/doPost/do... of Servlet
-> working(calculating result) in:
service/doGet/doPost/do...
or another method in Servlet
or another method in Utility-class
or RMI/EJB...
-> get the result needed by Applet
Applet <- return to Applet from service/doGet/doPost/do...
i.e., because now I try to use Servlet, so, normally, I need to send
a HTTP request from client-side, and/so client-side(Applet, html/wml...)
has to use/pass-through service/doGet/doPost/do... to enter server-side,
then in server-side/middle-tie(?), another Java-method/JNI-invoking/RMI/EJB...
can be invoked.
you also can use RMI/EJB... directly from Applet/Application, but perhaps now
the client-side is heavier: normally, a RMI/EJB... Java-client is heavier than
a
HTTP Java-client, so perhaps it is better to put them into Servlet.
if the above is wrong, please correct it, thanks! :-)
