Talk:Jakarta Servlet

message: The example contains synchronized (sharedCounter) using the object that it is replacing with sharedCounter++. This is the worst thing a programmer can do. sharedCounter is read before the synchronized block is entered, without any thread safe construct, leading to an unpredictable result, followed by synchronizing on that unpredictable result. Synchronization can only work when it is using the same object each time.

Do you think this is a bit too jargon-heavy for lay readers such as myself, rather than those with prior experience of such matters? 194.73.118.78 13:57, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Is it correct to put PHP in a list with CGI and ASP? PHP scripts may be invoked in CGI, but, generally, PHP is a language, not a technology or something like that... or am I wrong?--VictorAnyakin 08:14, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: PHP is CGI, but it can be embedded in HTML, instead of the "echoing" of "normal" CGI. It is really only cosmetics for humans, you know. :)
* Sorry but that's completely incorrect.  PHP is an independant subsystem, exactly like jsp (and considerably easier to use in my opinion).  I find its clumping with CGI a bit jarring, and its peering with ASP very jarring - ASP only works on one platform (actually not true, some maniacs backported it into Apache, nobody knows why), PHP - and don't forget mod_python ! - works pretty much on everything.

message: There isn't a single reference for this article. Could someone please help out with this? I imagine much of the information in this article can be gleaned from the Sun specification and documentation docs under the product page for java servlet technology--weezology (talk) 00:31, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Missing References 

message: Non-Java dynamic content.  That's not to say non-dynamic content.  It's just that Java is the exclusive property of Sun.   Microsoft offered Java for a while until they were overwhelmed with a desire to modify the Java standard, thereby violating their contract with Sun.  Hence, Microsoft offers little in the way of Java.   --173.66.64.90 (talk) 18:12, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

message: The article uses the word servlet in capitalised form. Is this a short form for "Java Servlet"? I think that it should not be capitalised at all, as you can see here. Sae1962 (talk) 14:40, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Why is there a diagram of a JSP file lifetime? 

message: The question of upper/lower case usage is recurrent on this page but does not seem to have been clearly addressed. The lower-case term, "servlet", is more prevalent in the literature and refers to the servlet concept (e.g.) whereas, the upper-case term, "Servlet", is used to refer to the Java class (technically an interface). It's clear to me from the content that the article is not about the class but the concept (with appropriate references to the class). If that is the consensus here, then I propose we change the article title to "Java servlet". Jojalozzo 17:24, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

message: This article seems to have been flagged for incorrect citations. Is it against policy to link to documentation pages online?  Should the docs be added as a reference? It would make sense, but a second opinion would help.  ThinkBack (talk) 19:03, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
