Sure it's possible. Invoking a servlet is exactly what a servlet engine does.
You don't need to simulate an http request, you just need to simulate a servlet
engine. Of course, that's simpler said than done:
- Write classes that implement the HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse, and
ServletConfig interface and any other interfaces needed
- Instantiate an instance of your class that implements ServletConfig
- Instantiate an instance of the servlet class
- Call the servlet instance's init method
- Instantiate instances of the classes that implement the HttpServletRequest and
HttpServletResponse interfaces
- Call the servlet instance's doGet or doPost methods
It might be easier to just reimplement the servlet so that it can be used as a
'regular' java class without all the servlet classes or interfaces.
