return after jsp:forward action

[Brusk Baran]

We must explicitly use return; after a call to jsp:forward. am I wrong?

pageContext.getOut().clearBuffer();
<jsp:forward ...>
   <jsp :-P	 aram name="n1" value="v1"  />
</jsp:forward>
I mean, we are still inside the [B]service()[/B] method of a jsp-servlet so we must [B]return() B]  

kind regards;

You don't have to. as long as you don't write anything to the response, it's ok. But in many cases developers write return; after forwarding.
