本文详细解释了Servlet的生命周期中的关键方法，包括init、service、doGet、doPost及destroy等，并探讨了它们之间的区别与联系。同时，还讨论了GET与POST请求的区别及其应用场景。

如转贴中所描述，在 servlet生命周期中，service方法进行判断调用doGet还是doPost方法

init()
service() {goGet() & doPost()}
destroy()

技术实现上，可以doGet/doPost使用相同的代码

如写一个doXXX,在doGet/doPost中均使用doXXX

init()
service() {goGet() & doPost())
destroy()
are the lifecycle methods. init() & destroy() are called once in lifetime. And service() method is called whenever a request comes. If request is through the Get method, service() method calls (pass that request to) doGet() and if request is through post method service() method calls (pass that request to the) doPost() method.

thanks & regards,
sanjeev.

Technically you can make doGet and doPost act identically. It's not uncommon to see both of those methods call doProcess or some other method you make up, allowing users to get or post at will.

The inventors of HTTP saw them as very different however. GET operations must be "idempotent" which just means they have no side effects and repeated calls should give the same result. A pure query in other words. POST operations should be used to send information to the server that will change the state of some object or data store.

HERE is an article on the topic that I happened to be reading right before I saw your note. The inventors of HTTP promote a web application architecture called REST (Representational State Transfer) that assigns very particular meaning to all the HTTP verbs - GET, POST, PUT, HEAD, etc - and further tells us that these are all we need.

I just wanted to make one tiny clarification--I know what you meant Stan, but I just wanted to make sure it's clear to everyone: HTTP GET operations do *not* need to always "give the same result", in terms of the *response*. The *response* can be different with each GET, as long as there are no side-effects. So what you said is correct (no side effects, pure query, etc.); I'm just making sure that everyone knows that "repeated calls should give the same result" does not mean "same RESPONSE".

cheers and thanks for the good link!

what is the difference between 'service()' and 'doGet()'(or 'doPost()')?

Now you haven't got the difference right. ok then read the docs or some tutorial, book.
Again there is no better substitute.

cheers

service(), doGet() and doPost() are methods, and are used to do operations (methods are to do operations/task, hope that's clear).
you can perform the same or different task in doGet() & in doPost() as per your need(requirement). So, there is no difference b/w doGet() & doPost() and you need to implement these methods as per your requirements. At the moment you should know when doGet() would be called & when doPost() would be called and how.

do the same & share your doubts.

Correct me if i m wrong,

GET():

- 'Get' is used to send the form data with the request itself.
- only 256 characters are allowed.
- when there is no such class or nothing to satisfy the request the data is lost.

POST():
- first header is send, the form fields are send after the finding the something that satisfies the request.
- i think there is no limitation on no of charactors to be sent.
- if there is nothing to satisfy the request then the data is not sent.

let me know in which conditions or situation we have to use the service()?

Thanks

hey gopi i found something simple and somewhat complete for you. here is that,

After the servlet is initialized, the container may keep it ready for handling client
requests. When client requests arrive, they are delegated to the servlet through the
service()method, passing the request and response objects as parameters. In the
case of HTTP requests, the request and response objects are implementations of
HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse respectively. In the
HttpServlet class, the service() method invokes a different handler method for
each type of HTTP request, doGet() method for GET requests, doPost() method for
POST requests, and so on.

some more,

GET method
The GET method is used to retrieve a resource (like an image or an HTML page) from
the server, which is specified in the request URL. When the user types the request
URL into the browser's location field or clicks on a hyperlink, the GET method is
triggered. If a tag is used, the method attribute can be specified as "GET" to cause the
browser to send a GET request. Even if no method attribute is specified, the browser
uses the GET method by default.
We can pass request parameters by having a query string appended to the request
URL, which is a set of name-value pairs separated by an "&" character. Here we have passed the parameters studname and studno, which have the values
"Tom" and "123" respectively. Because the data passed using the GET method is
visible inside the URL, it is not advisable to send sensitive information in this manner.
The other restrictions for the GET method are that it can pass only text data and not more than 255 characters (i read somewhere that it depends on browser support).

POST method
The purpose of the POST method is to "post" or send information to the server. It is
possible to send an unlimited amount of data as part of a POST request, and the type of
data can be binary or text.
This method is usually used for sending bulk data, such as uploading files or updating
databases. The method attribute of the <form> tag can be specified as "POST" to
cause the browser to send a POST request to the server.
Because the request parameters are sent as part of the request body, it is not visible
as part of the request URL, which was also the case with the GET method.

when the req is received by the service method, req and res are cast to their http counter parts and service method with http req and res is invoked, this method directs the request to the appropriate method based on get or post, actually u no need to implement the service method instead u should implement these subsidiary methods (get or post) in ur servlet
