Hi all,
at the moment one of my tasks is, to find out if there is a possibility
to run Java Servlets from within a Java Server Faces page.
Some background info therefor: we've got a software product that
consists of Java Servlets and runs on the Tomcat container. All the
servlets make use of one main servlet by extending its functionality.
Now our long term goal is to migrate from the Java Servlet to the JSF /
MyFaces technology.
And my question is, if it's possible to write a compatibility layer,
that calls the servlet and displays it's output within a Java Server
Faces page. Maybe even by overwriting the HTTPServlet classes... ?
Does such layer perhaps already exist?
Or does anybody know how to solve this problem in an elegant way?
Small changes on the servlets would be no problem at all.
Thank you,
Tobias.
