Java Servlet Example

Hey all,

I am trying to learn a little about servlets, but am too cheap to go buy a book, does anyone have some good sites for example code of servlets?

Thanks

Check out http://allaire.com/ and their JRun (evaluation) product http://allaire11.allaire.com/downloa...9E0010B547F60A . There are samples for servlets and jsp and ejb.

Or get a good deal (you will pay something): I picked up 4 books for about $20 total (after S&H, tax, etc.), from a customized get 3 for $1.99 and 1 free (total 4) from lcis.booksonline.com/lcis . Each book was worth at least $20 (I think even more than $20 each).

Or visit a book store or library. By the time I finish this post, I will have written enough characters for a servlet example. Too bad I don't have one in front of me. I think one of the books from lcis was Java Developer Servlets and JSP or some such http://shop.barnesandnoble.com/books...sbn=0782128092 . I heard "Instant JavaServer Pages" isn't that good http://shop.barnesandnoble.com/books...sbn=0072126019 .

For strictly free, I'd recommend JRun. After installation, you can browse html to get to the samples in pdf and look at source in a directory like this one D:\Program Files\Allaire\JRun\servers\default\demo-app\WEB-INF\classes

The doXXX methods is where the action is. Unfortunately, this attachment doesn't show the doXXX methods. But the JRun evaluation would.

Hey Bill,

There are couple sites, but it tends to mesh servlets with jsp...
sites:

1) www.jspin.com
2) www.archive.coreservlets.com
3) http://www.apl.jhu.edu/~hall/java/Se...orial-JSP.html
4) http://www.bitafterbit.com/english/j...let/index.html
5) http://java.rrzn.uni-hannover.de/jug..._tutorial.html


these are some of the sites, when i did a search on yahoo...some it is useful...the first one is more interactive site...more than a tutorial...

these sites might help aside from you buying any books(sorry).

Books..i have 3 books...
1) oreilly's servlet programming...
2) Developing Java Servlets
3) Java Servlets

I got alot of computer books for cheap when i was in india...
most expensive book i got was oracle 8i(really big one) for about 10 dollars(it was the latest edition too).

Hey sweetsupra,
Nice links. (I only checked out the 3rd one and found what I was trying to show Bill at http://www.apl.jhu.edu/~hall/java/Se...Form-Data.html ).

Anyway, were you the one that posted about making executables from class files?

Also, could you take a look at http://forums.vb-world.net/showthrea...threadid=69087 regarding tweaking the VM?

thanks for the posts guys the links are great and I will take a look at the books...

Hey VirtuallyVB,
