Hierarchy of Servlet Please

[Rashid Ali]

Can you please answer the following simple question.
Which class does a servlet usually inherit from?
Thanks/Rashid Ali

[Bosun Bello]

HTTPServlet in most cases.

[Sanjay Balu]

HttpServlet for Http specific servlets,
Generic servlets for generic protocol independent servlets

[Rashid Ali]

I submitted the answer of the above question as follows earlier but it was not accepted:

- javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
and
- java.servlet.GenericServlet
But both the above answers were not accepted.
Is there anything left in my answers or there is some other answer for this question.
Need your feedback.

+--javax.servlet.GenericServlet

I believe there is a mock exam out there tha he is referring to. I guess it's safe to say the mock exam is incorrect, if that's what it is.

Sorry guys, i again tried today and succeeded! The problem was that i was supplying the answer in the quotes (which are not allowed) therefore it was not accepting the answer which is one of the above.
Thank you very much for your time and suggestions.
Kind regards
