Subject: Initialization And Destroy methods in JSP.
hi all!
I have recently joined this forum and this is my first mail .I have
recently started working on JSP.What i want to know is where should we
allocate and deallocate memory for objects which are common accross all
instances of servlets resultant from compilation of JSP i.e i want
something analogous to init() and destroy() methods of servlets.please
correct me if i am wrong in thinking that constructor of a bean is a
replacement for init() in servlets.In case of Data Base Connection I
have allways been instantiating the DriverManager in the constructror of
bean that i am using in the jsp.But i didn't know where to release or
deallocate the instatiated obects.I have come toknow that when jsp gets
compiled into a servlet it has methods like jsp_init(),jsp_service() and
jsp_destroy(), what i want to know is how and where to specify if we
want any code to go into init() and destroy() methods?Any help in
regarding this would be very helpful.Thanking you in advance.
regards,
padma priya.
