No yr not crazy, just a littl masochistic maybe :-)
(either that or I've missed the point)
instead of ...
> public void service(HttpServletRequest Req, HttpServletResponse Res)
> throws ServletException, IOException
> {
why don't you try ...
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest Req, HttpServletResponse Res)
throws ServletException, IOException
{
theRestOfIt(Req, Res);
}
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest Req, HttpServletResponse Res)
throws ServletException, IOException
{
theRestOfIt(Req, Res);
}
private void theRestOfIt(Req, Res)
throws ServletException, IOException
{
what you really need to do here...
}
the documentation says pretty clearly not to use 'service' -- "This
method is rarely overridden."
