All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable, javax.servlet.Servlet, javax.servlet.ServletConfig

public abstract class ToolServlet
extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet

Base class for all tool servlets. One ToolServlet object exists and it manages individual ToolSession objects. One ToolSession object exists per each user session as created by the WebServer/WebBrowser.
Tool servlets interact with each other in a way that allows commnitcation between any tools servlet and discoveries of tools by any of the tools. (ie. A desktop tool can discover all other tools and ask them to produce content that can be pluged into the desktop.)

Constructor Detail

ToolServlet

public ToolServlet(java.lang.String name)
Method Detail

getName

public java.lang.String getName()
Get name of the servlet application


getPath

public java.lang.String getPath()
Get path to the servlet application


getToolServlets

public static java.util.Vector getToolServlets()
Get all the ToolServlets currently running.


getServletConfig

public javax.servlet.ServletConfig getServletConfig()
Get the servlet config object.


init

public void init(javax.servlet.ServletConfig conf)
          throws javax.servlet.ServletException
Description copied from class: javax.servlet.GenericServlet
Called by the servlet container to indicate to a servlet that the servlet is being placed into service. See Servlet.init(javax.servlet.ServletConfig)>Servlet.init(javax.servlet.ServletConfig) 55 .

This implementation stores the javax.servlet.ServletConfig object it receives from the servlet container for later use. When overriding this form of the method, call super.init(config).


doPost

public void doPost(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req,
                   javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse res)
            throws javax.servlet.ServletException,
                   java.io.IOException
Description copied from class: javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
Called by the server (via the service method) to allow a servlet to handle a POST request. The HTTP POST method allows the client to send data of unlimited length to the Web server a single time and is useful when posting information such as credit card numbers.

When overriding this method, read the request data, write the response headers, get the response's writer or output stream object, and finally, write the response data. It's best to include content type and encoding. When using a PrintWriter object to return the response, set the content type before accessing the PrintWriter object.

The servlet container must write the headers before committing the response, because in HTTP the headers must be sent before the response body.

Where possible, set the Content-Length header (with the ServletResponse.setContentLength(int)>ServletResponse.setContentLength(int) 55 method), to allow the servlet container to use a persistent connection to return its response to the client, improving performance. The content length is automatically set if the entire response fits inside the response buffer.

When using HTTP 1.1 chunked encoding (which means that the response has a Transfer-Encoding header), do not set the Content-Length header.

This method does not need to be either safe or idempotent. Operations requested through POST can have side effects for which the user can be held accountable, for example, updating stored data or buying items online.

If the HTTP POST request is incorrectly formatted, doPost returns an HTTP "Bad Request" message.


doGet

public void doGet(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req,
                  javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse res)
           throws javax.servlet.ServletException,
                  java.io.IOException
Description copied from class: javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
Called by the server (via the service method) to allow a servlet to handle a GET request.

Overriding this method to support a GET request also automatically supports an HTTP HEAD request. A HEAD request is a GET request that returns no body in the response, only the request header fields.

When overriding this method, read the request data, write the response headers, get the response's writer or output stream object, and finally, write the response data. It's best to include content type and encoding. When using a PrintWriter object to return the response, set the content type before accessing the PrintWriter object.

The servlet container must write the headers before committing the response, because in HTTP the headers must be sent before the response body.

Where possible, set the Content-Length header (with the ServletResponse.setContentLength(int)>ServletResponse.setContentLength(int) 55 method), to allow the servlet container to use a persistent connection to return its response to the client, improving performance. The content length is automatically set if the entire response fits inside the response buffer.

When using HTTP 1.1 chunked encoding (which means that the response has a Transfer-Encoding header), do not set the Content-Length header.

The GET method should be safe, that is, without any side effects for which users are held responsible. For example, most form queries have no side effects. If a client request is intended to change stored data, the request should use some other HTTP method.

The GET method should also be idempotent, meaning that it can be safely repeated. Sometimes making a method safe also makes it idempotent. For example, repeating queries is both safe and idempotent, but buying a product online or modifying data is neither safe nor idempotent.

If the request is incorrectly formatted, doGet returns an HTTP "Bad Request" message.


retrieveSession

private com.voytechs.html.component.ServletFrame retrieveSession(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req)
                                                          throws javax.servlet.ServletException
Retrieves the GUI Frame stored in the HttpSession object. If a new session is created A ServletFrame is created and an abstract method createSessionPanel() is called to create a new HTTP Panel for this new session. This function should be defined in sub-classed application specific object.


createSessionPanel

public abstract com.voytechs.html.component.Panel createSessionPanel()
                                                              throws com.voytechs.html.event.EventException

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)
