No. Clearly this is wrong, type checking can enforce that requirement:
public abstract class Servlet
{
public Servlet(ServletConfig sc)
{
// do some stuff
}
// do some stuff
}
The reason a servlet has an init method, as opposed to a constructor
is that a constructed instance of a servlet can be deployed and
undeployed from a container several times during it's lifetime.
