Hi
As per the generation of servlets from JSP it is different from one jsp engine to
other jsp engine. Every jsp engine has there own convenient way of converting jsp into
servlets. I guess the developers of those engines has taken care of efficient servlet
coding.
The basic aim of JSP is to divide the role of a java developer and a creative
designer. Normally in web applications front end is more important(in context of
showing otherwise it is always performance and efficiency which matters for a stable
application) as it is the only thing which is visible to users. I think the front end
overrides performance and efficiency by a slight margin. If you have separation of
html and java then it is always easy to maintain it as if somebody wants to do a
slight change in html one can always do that without the need of compiling the java
servlet code.
Otherwise i think one can always write an efficient servlet, if he/she is coding it.
My view is use JSP to show mainly for the purpose of showing fron end while use
servlets in between for all the business logic.
But it depends what matter.........
and the argument goes on.....
cheers.....
