Here is the question from the MockUp Exam (JavaBeat)
Given the deployment descriptor for a Web Application is
<web-app version="2.4">
<servlet>
<servlet-name>InitParamsServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>scwcd14.chap02.InitParamsServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>InitParamsServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/InitParamsServlet</url-pattern>
<init-param>
<param-name>name</param-name>
<param-value>javabeat</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
What will be the output of the following Servlet?
package scwcd14.chap02;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class InitParamsServlet extends HttpServlet {
public void init(){
ServletConfig config = getServletConfig();
System.out.println(config.getInitParameter("name"));
System.out.println(config.getInitParameter("no-name"));
}
...
}
a. The Servlet will output 'javabeat null' in the Server Console.
b. The Servlet will fail to load as the init param property 'no-name' is not mentioned in
the deployment descriptor.
c. A NullPointerException will be raised as calling getServletConfig() in the init()
method will return a null reference.
The answer is A.
How?
