                throws java.io.IOException

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

The initialize method is called to initialize an uninitialized PageContext so that it may be used by a JSP Implementation class to service an incoming request and response within it's _jspService() method.

This method is typically called from JspFactory.getPageContext() in order to initialize state.

This method is required to create an initial JspWriter, and associate the "out" name in page scope with this newly created object.

This method should not be used by page or tag library authors.

Specified by:

initialize in class javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

Parameters:

servlet - The Servlet that is associated with this PageContext

request - The currently pending request for this Servlet

response - The currently pending response for this Servlet

errorPageURL - The value of the errorpage attribute from the page directive or null

needsSession - The value of the session attribute from the page directive

bufferSize - The value of the buffer attribute from the page directive

autoFlush - The value of the autoflush attribute from the page directive

Throws:

java.io.IOException - during creation of JspWriter

release

public void release()

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

This method shall "reset" the internal state of a PageContext, releasing all internal references, and preparing the PageContext for potential reuse by a later invocation of initialize(). This method is typically called from JspFactory.releasePageContext().

Subclasses shall envelope this method.

This method should not be used by page or tag library authors.

Specified by:

release in class javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

include

public void include(java.lang.String relativeUrlPath)
             throws javax.servlet.ServletException,
                    java.io.IOException

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

Causes the resource specified to be processed as part of the current ServletRequest and ServletResponse being processed by the calling Thread. The output of the target resources processing of the request is written directly to the ServletResponse output stream.

The current JspWriter "out" for this JSP is flushed as a side-effect of this call, prior to processing the include.

If the relativeUrlPath begins with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the DOCROOT of the ServletContext for this JSP. If the path does not begin with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the URL of the request that was mapped to the calling JSP.

It is only valid to call this method from a Thread executing within a _jspService(...) method of a JSP.

Specified by:

include in class javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

Parameters:

relativeUrlPath - specifies the relative URL path to the target resource to be included

Throws:

javax.servlet.ServletException - if the page that was forwarded to throws a ServletException

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurred while forwarding

include

public void include(java.lang.String relativeUrlPath,
                    boolean flush)
             throws javax.servlet.ServletException,
                    java.io.IOException

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

Causes the resource specified to be processed as part of the current ServletRequest and ServletResponse being processed by the calling Thread. The output of the target resources processing of the request is written directly to the current JspWriter returned by a call to getOut().

If flush is true, The current JspWriter "out" for this JSP is flushed as a side-effect of this call, prior to processing the include. Otherwise, the JspWriter "out" is not flushed.

If the relativeUrlPath begins with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the DOCROOT of the ServletContext for this JSP. If the path does not begin with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the URL of the request that was mapped to the calling JSP.

It is only valid to call this method from a Thread executing within a _jspService(...) method of a JSP.

Specified by:

include in class javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

Parameters:

relativeUrlPath - specifies the relative URL path to the target resource to be included

flush - True if the JspWriter is to be flushed before the include, or false if not.

Throws:

javax.servlet.ServletException - if the page that was forwarded to throws a ServletException

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurred while forwarding

getVariableResolver

public javax.servlet.jsp.el.VariableResolver getVariableResolver()

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.JspContext

Returns an instance of a VariableResolver that provides access to the implicit objects specified in the JSP specification using this JspContext as the context object.

Specified by:

getVariableResolver in class javax.servlet.jsp.JspContext

Returns:

A valid instance of a VariableResolver.

forward

public void forward(java.lang.String relativeUrlPath)
             throws javax.servlet.ServletException,
                    java.io.IOException

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

This method is used to re-direct, or "forward" the current ServletRequest and ServletResponse to another active component in the application.

If the relativeUrlPath begins with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the DOCROOT of the ServletContext for this JSP. If the path does not begin with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the URL of the request that was mapped to the calling JSP.

It is only valid to call this method from a Thread executing within a _jspService(...) method of a JSP.

Once this method has been called successfully, it is illegal for the calling Thread to attempt to modify the ServletResponse object. Any such attempt to do so, shall result in undefined behavior. Typically, callers immediately return from _jspService(...) after calling this method.

Specified by:

forward in class javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

Parameters:

relativeUrlPath - specifies the relative URL path to the target resource as described above

Throws:

javax.servlet.ServletException - if the page that was forwarded to throws a ServletException

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurred while forwarding

pushBody

public javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.BodyContent pushBody()

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

Return a new BodyContent object, save the current "out" JspWriter, and update the value of the "out" attribute in the page scope attribute namespace of the PageContext.

Overrides:

pushBody in class javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

Returns:

the new BodyContent

pushBody

public javax.servlet.jsp.JspWriter pushBody(java.io.Writer writer)

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.JspContext

Return a new JspWriter object that sends output to the provided Writer. Saves the current "out" JspWriter, and updates the value of the "out" attribute in the page scope attribute namespace of the JspContext.

The returned JspWriter must implement all methods and behave as though it were unbuffered. More specifically:

• clear() must throw an IOException
• clearBuffer() does nothing
• getBufferSize() always returns 0
• getRemaining() always returns 0

Overrides:

pushBody in class javax.servlet.jsp.JspContext

Parameters:

writer - The Writer for the returned JspWriter to send output to.

Returns:

a new JspWriter that writes to the given Writer.

popBody

public javax.servlet.jsp.JspWriter popBody()

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.JspContext

Return the previous JspWriter "out" saved by the matching pushBody(), and update the value of the "out" attribute in the page scope attribute namespace of the JspContext.

Overrides:

popBody in class javax.servlet.jsp.JspContext

Returns:

the saved JspWriter.

getExpressionEvaluator

public javax.servlet.jsp.el.ExpressionEvaluator getExpressionEvaluator()

Provides programmatic access to the ExpressionEvaluator. The JSP Container must return a valid instance of an ExpressionEvaluator that can parse EL expressions.

Specified by:

getExpressionEvaluator in class javax.servlet.jsp.JspContext

Returns:

A valid instance of an ExpressionEvaluator.

handlePageException

public void handlePageException(java.lang.Exception ex)
                         throws java.io.IOException,
                                javax.servlet.ServletException

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

This method is intended to process an unhandled 'page' level exception by forwarding the exception to the specified error page for this JSP. If forwarding is not possible (for example because the response has already been committed), an implementation dependent mechanism should be used to invoke the error page (e.g. "including" the error page instead).

If no error page is defined in the page, the exception should be rethrown so that the standard servlet error handling takes over.

A JSP implementation class shall typically clean up any local state prior to invoking this and will return immediately thereafter. It is illegal to generate any output to the client, or to modify any ServletResponse state after invoking this call.

This method is kept for backwards compatiblity reasons. Newly generated code should use PageContext.handlePageException(Throwable).

Specified by:

handlePageException in class javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

Parameters:

ex - the exception to be handled

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurred while invoking the error page

javax.servlet.ServletException - if an error occurs while invoking the error page

See Also:

PageContext.handlePageException(Throwable)

handlePageException

public void handlePageException(java.lang.Throwable t)
                         throws java.io.IOException,
                                javax.servlet.ServletException

Description copied from class: javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

This method is intended to process an unhandled 'page' level exception by forwarding the exception to the specified error page for this JSP. If forwarding is not possible (for example because the response has already been committed), an implementation dependent mechanism should be used to invoke the error page (e.g. "including" the error page instead).

If no error page is defined in the page, the exception should be rethrown so that the standard servlet error handling takes over.

This method is intended to process an unhandled "page" level exception by redirecting the exception to either the specified error page for this JSP, or if none was specified, to perform some implementation dependent action.

A JSP implementation class shall typically clean up any local state prior to invoking this and will return immediately thereafter. It is illegal to generate any output to the client, or to modify any ServletResponse state after invoking this call.

Specified by:

handlePageException in class javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext

Parameters:

t - the throwable to be handled

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurred while invoking the error page

javax.servlet.ServletException - if an error occurs while invoking the error page
