Servlet doPost() Method setup?
- by Mark R
I am interested in creating a web app that uses JSP, Servlets and XML.
At the moment I have the following:
JSP - Form input.
Servlet - Retrieving Form data and sending that data to a java object.
Java object (1) - Converts data into XML file....instantiates java object (2).
Java object (2) - Sends that file to a database.
On the returning side the database will send back another XML file that I will then process using XSLT to display back to the user.
Can I place that XSLT code in the orignial Servlets doPost() method? So my doPost()` method would:
Retrieve user inputted data from the form on my JSP page.
Instantiate a java object to convert that data to XML, in-turn that object will instantiates another object to send the XML file to a database.
Converts the resulting XML file sent from the database and displays it for the user.
Can one servlet doPost() method handle all of this? If not, how would I set up my application and classes to handle this work flow?
Thank you in advance
