Hi,
I would like to call a servlet from within a servlet, e.g.:
<map:transform type="servletService">
<map:parameter name="service"
value="servlet:db:/workspace/getSortOrders.xml"/>
</map:transform>
from within the db-servlet itself. I realize this is somewhat like a recursive
call and it could lead to unpleasant behavior. I also realize I have setup my
blocks incorrectly and probably need to create more blocks, pushing the code I
want to call to the basic 'bottom' block. But it would help for now if this is
possible :-).
The above statement fails, so I tried to add:
<servlet:connections>
<entry key="db" value-ref="nl.mpi.lexus.db.service"/>
<entry key="display" value-ref="nl.mpi.lexus.display.service"/>
</servlet:connections>
to the servlet context for db:
<servlet:context mount-path="/db" context-path="blockcontext:/db/"/>
but then things fail to startup properly.
So, it's not that I can't imagine why this is tricky, but on the other hand I
can see this might be useful. An alternative I see would be to use a
<map:resource/> but unfortunately the code I'm trying to call is in a different
sitemap.xmap. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Hartelijke groet,
Huib.
