The Dynamic Web • To evolve from the static to the dynamic web requires: • Generating HTML with scripts/programs • CGI, Servlet • Tools & techniques to make it manageable • JSP • Accessing and Updating data • JDBC
CGI • CGI is not a language. It's a simple protocol that can be used to communicate between Web server and CGI program. • A CGI script can be written in any language • (Virtually any Programming language: C, Perl, shell script)
CGI #include <stdio.h> void main() { /** Print the CGI response header, required for all HTML output. **/ printf(“Content-type:text/html\n\n”); /** Print the HTML response page to STDOUT. **/ printf(“<html><head><title>Hello,CGI</title></head>\n”); printf(“<body><h1>Hello CGI</h1></body></html>”); }
CGI Pros and Cons • Pros • Simplicity • Cons • Performance problem • Security problem
Servlet Basics • What is Servlet? • A program written in Java that runs on the server, as opposed to the browser (applets). • Invoked with “servlet” keyword in URL • E.g. http://domain-name/servlet/MyServlet
Servlets vs. CGI • Servlets have several advantages over CGI • A Servlet does not run in a separate process. • A Servlet stays in memory between requests. A CGI program needs to be loaded and started for each CGI request. • There is only a single instancewhich answers all requests concurrently. This saves memory • A Servlet can be run in a Sandbox, which allows secure use of untrusted and potentially harmful Servlets.
Servlet Container (engine) • Take and convert clients’ requests to an “object” understood by a servlet • Provide an “object” to be used for response • Manage the servletlifecycle • Make a servlet instance • Call the instance’s init() • Call the instance’s service() upon request • Call the instance’s destroy() before destroying the instance • Mark the instance for garbage collection
Add-on Servlet Engines • Plug into popular web servers • Stand-alone Servlet Engines • Supports Web Server function • JSDK(Java Servlet Development Kit)2.1 • Apache JServ 1.1/Tomcat 3.2.1
Servlet Flow http://nclab.kaist.ac.kr/servlet/MyServlet response (HTML page) MyServlet HTTP request Servlet engine
Servlet Flow • A client Web browser submits HTTP request specifying servlet, e.g., http://nclab.kaist.ac.kr/servlet/MyServlet • The HTTP server receives the request from the client. The server parses the request and forwards it to the servlet.
Servlet Flow • An instance of the servlet is created (or activated) to process the request. • The servlet processes any form input data & generates an HTML response. • This response is relayed back through the HTTP server to the client browser, which displays the page.
Temporary Servlets • loaded on demand • offer a good way to conserve resources in the server for less-used functions.
Permanent Servlets • Loaded when the server is started, and live until the server is shutdown • Servlets are installed as permanent extensions to a serverwhen • their start-up costs are very high (such as establishing a connection with a DBMS), • they offer permanent server-side functionality (such as an RMI service) • they must respond as fast as possible to client requests.
Key Servlet Packages • Java Servlet API • Defines the interface between servletsand servers • javax.servlet • javax.servlet.http
javax.servlet.Servlet Interface • init(ServletConfig) • Initializes the servlet. • service(ServletRequest, ServletResponse) • Carries out a single request from the client. • destroy() • Called by the servlet container to indicate to a servlet that the servlet is being taken out of service. • allow servlet to clean up any resources (such as open files or database connections) before the servlet is unloaded
getServletConfig() • Returns a ServletConfig object, which contains any initialization parameters and startup configuration for this servlet. • getServletInfo() • Returns a string containing information about the servlet
HTTP Support Classes • javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet provides an implementation of the javax.servlet.Servlet interface • The easiest way to write an HTTP servlet is to extendHttpServletand add your own processing. • The class HttpServlet provides a service() method that dispatches the HTTP messages to one of several methods: • doGet(), doPost(), doHead(), doDelete(), doPut() … corresponding directly with the HTTP protocol methods.
A servlet's doGet() method should • Read request data, such as input parameters • http://localhost/servlets/LoanCalculator?principal=200&interest=0.05····· • Set response headers (length, type, and encoding) • Write the response data
HelloServlet Example import java.io.*; import javax.servlet.*; import javax.servlet.http.*; public class HelloServlet extends HttpServlet { public void doGet (HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException { response.setContentType("text/html"); PrintWriter out = response.getWriter(); out.println("<html>"); out.println("<body><head><title>Hello 서블릿</title></head>"); out.println("<h1>첫번째 서블릿 입니다. </h1>"); out.println("</body></html>"); }
Servlet - features • Platform-independent • Performance • Easily extended due to class/package/bean concepts in Java
JSP • Why do we need JSP technology if we already have servlets?
JSP • Combinestatic HTML and dynamic Java in one programming concept • Simplified, fast creation of web pages that display dynamically-generated content. • Separation of web presentation from web content • Microsoft’s similar concept • Active Server Pages
JSP • JSP code is compiled into Java servlet class, then executed • Remains in memory • Only when any change in source file, repeat the first step
JSP tags • Comment • <!-- comment --> : HTML comment • <%-- comment --%> : Hidden comment • Declaration • <%! declaration; %> • Expression • <%= expression %>
JSP tags • Scriptlet • <% code fragment %> • Include Directive • <%@ include file=“relative URL” %> • Page Directive • <%@ page language=“java” %> • <%@ page import=“package.*” %> • <%@ page contentType=“text/html” %> • <%@ session=“true|false” %>
<html> <head> <title> 첫번째 jsp 페이지 </title> </head> <body bgcolor=ivory> <center><h1>first jsp page</h1> <%! String str=“NC Lab."; %> <ul> <% for (int i=0; i < 5; i++) { out.println("<li>" + i); } %> </ul> <%= str %> </center> </body> </html> Simple JSP Code
