What would be the output in your browser when you invoke the servlet-code with the following URL: http://localhost/servlet/com.baboon.servletmodel.TestParamServlet?Param=10

package com.baboon.servletmodel;
public class TestParamServlet extends HttpServlet
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest req,
HttpServletResponse resp)throws ServletException, IOException
resp.getWriter().println(req.getParameter("param"));
}
}

The correct answer given is :- Code compiles, a blank page is displayed.

But I think it will throw an exception saying ... Get is not implemented etc !!!

What do u guys think ???

Thats correct answer. Default service method is doGet() and thats what exacty the URL will try to invoke. No exception is thrown if its not there request is still served. I got that question right when I took that test
Since doPost() is never invoked.. value of 'Param' is never printed from there.

Hi,

The HTTP method is GET here so there must be an error HTTP 403 ERROR,
Since get is not implemented Iam sure there will be an error shown to teh user,
This method is not supported ....

Hi,

You would have a better idea if you have a look at the HttpServlet Class. Here the default implementations of all the Http methods are empty. So the code should compile fine and nothing will be printed.

Hey I am sorry , the default implementation for doGet() method is :

protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp)
throws ServletException, IOException
{
String protocol = req.getProtocol();
String msg = lStrings.getString("http.method_get_not_supported");
if(protocol.endsWith("1.1"))
resp.sendError(405, msg);
else
resp.sendError(400, msg);
}

So I guess if you donot override this method a 400 error message should appear.

Regards,
Srini
