Can somebody tell me why the following code is throws an exception when I try
to compile it (code is from J. Hunter's Java Servlet Programming) :
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Hello1</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
<H1>
Hello, <%= getName(request) %>
</H1>
</BODY>
</HTML>
<SCRIPT RUNAT="server">
private static final String DEFAULT_NAME = "World";
private String getName(HttpServletRequest req) {
String name = req.getParameter("name");
if (name == null)
return DEFAULT_NAME;
else
return name;
}
</SCRIPT>
And here's the exception :
Hello1$jsp.java [61:1] cannot resolve symbol
symbol : method getName (javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)
location: class org.apache.jsp.Hello1$jsp
out.print( getName(request) );
^
1 error
Errors compiling Hello1.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Bob.
