Hello team,

        I have pasted these questions few days back but couldnt get any
answer please someone pay attention to this stuff and clarify me.

        1.      If we reload an servlet it will take the latest compiled
file from the servlet directory, i.e. it will check the timestamp and will
reload the newly compile class file, but the servlets will hold reference
to old objects as well, what will be the state of the old servlets
will they refer to the newly compile file or it will be referring to the
old ones.  And what is the algorthim in cleaning up the old objects is
there any time frame or else we need to force the GC to collect them?

        2.      Since the classloader for servlets will reload the latest
version of the servlets can anyone explain me what will happen in the
following scenario:

        (i). I have a A servlet which reads some file from the ini file
that accompanies with the servlet, while it is in the process of reading
and invoking the servlets i compiled a B(*new version of A*) servlet which
will delete the ini file that exists and then will update some data into
to the new file.  Can anyone explain me what will the fate of the A
servlet(*the original A servlet*)

        3.      What is the need of an init() method in a servlet since it
initalizes all the parameters and save a reference of the ServletConfig,
wont it not be good if another constructor of the doPost or doXXX() has a
parameter of the servletconfig and save a reference.  Is SERVLET following
any naming convention??

        4.      What are initParameters and how are they passed to
servlets??
