Agenda
• Overview• Ease of Development• Dynamic Registration of Servlets and
Filters• Pluggability• Asynchronous Support• Security Enhancements• Miscellaneous
5
Overview
l Java Servlet 3.0 done as part of JSR 315– Final release done in December 2009.
l ~20 members in the expert group– Major Java EE vendors, open source web container
developers, framework authors
l Main areas of focus– Ease of Development– Pluggability– Asynchronous support– Security
6
Ease of Development
l Enhanced APIs to use new Java SE language features introduced since J2SE 5.0– Generics for type safety in API where possible
l Annotations for declarative style of programming– web.xml optional
l Convention over configuration
7
Ease of DevelopmentUse of annotations
l Annotations to declare Servlets, Filters, Listeners and servlet security– @WebServlet – Define a Servlet
– @WebFilter – Define a Filter
– @WebListener – Define a Listener
– @WebInitParam – Define init param
– @MultipartConfig – Define file upload properties
– @ServletSecurity – Define security constraints
l Can override using “web.xml”
8
Servlet 2.5 exampleAt least 2 files
<!--Deployment descriptor web.xml -->
<web-app><servlet> <servlet-name>MyServlet
</servlet-name> <servlet-class> com.sun.MyServlet </servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>MyServlet </servlet-name> <url-pattern>/myApp/* </url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> ... </web-app>
/* Code in Java Class */
package com.sun;public class MyServlet extends HttpServlet { public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req,HttpServletResponse res)
{
...
}
...
}
9
@WebServlet – Sample Code
@WebServlet(urlPatterns={“/myApp”})
public class SimpleSample extends HttpServlet
{
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req,HttpServletResponse res)
{
}
}
10
@WebServlet Async – Sample Code
@WebServlet(urlPatterns=“/myApp”, name=”MyServlet”, asyncSupported=true)
public class SimpleSample extends HttpServlet
{
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req,HttpServletResponse res)
{
}
}
11
Dynamic Registration Create and/or register
• ServletContext#add[Servlet | Filter]• Overloaded versions take [Servlet | Filter] name and
– Fully qualified [Servlet | Filter] class name or– Class <? extends [Servlet | Filter]> or – [Servlet | Filter] instance
• User returned Registration handle to configure all aspects of [Servlet | Filter]
l ServletContext#create[Servlet | Filter]– Takes Class<? Extends [Servlet | Filter]> argument– Supports resource injection by container– Returned [Servlet | Filter] instance may be fully customized before it
is registered
12
Dynamic Registration Lookup
l ServletContext#find[Servlet |Filter]Registration– Takes [Servlet | Filter] name as argument– Returned Registration handle provides subset of configuration
methods– May only be used to add initialization parameters and mappings– Conflict returned as java.util.Set
13
Dynamic Registration Register example
ServletRegistration.Dynamic dynamic =
servletContext.addServlet(
"DynamicServlet",
"com.mycom.MyServlet");
dynamic.addMapping("/dynamicServlet");
dynamic.setAsyncSupported(true);
14
Dynamic Registration Lookup example
ServletRegistration declared =
servletContext.getServletRegistration("DeclaredServlet");
declared.addMapping("/declaredServlet");
declared.setInitParameter("param", "value");
15
Pluggability
• Plugin libraries using web fragments– Modular web.xml– Absolute ordering: <absolute-ordering>– Relative ordering: <ordering>, <before>, <after>
• Bundled in framework *.jar/META-INF• Zero-configuration, drag-and-drop for web
frameworks– Servlets, servlet filters, context listeners for a framework
get discovered and registered by the container
• Only JAR files in WEB-INF/lib are used
16
<web-fragment> <filter> <filter-name>wicket.helloworld</filter-name> <filter-class>org.apache.wicket.protocol.http.WicketFilter</filter-class> <init-param> <param-name>applicationClassName</param-name> <param-value>...</param-value> </init-param> </filter>
<filter-mapping> <filter-name>wicket.helloworld</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping></web-fragment>http://blogs.sun.com/arungupta/entry/totd_91_applying_java_ee
Pluggability – Sample Code
17
<web-fragment> <filter> <filter-name>LiftFilter</filter-name> <display-name>Lift Filter</display-name> <description>The Filter that intercepts lift calls</description> <filter-class>net.liftweb.http.LiftFilter</filter-class> </filter>
<filter-mapping> <filter-name>LiftFilter</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping></web-fragment>

Pluggability – Sample Code
18
ExtensibilityServletContainerInitializer
• Container installed JARs– App or Library
• Discovered using the service provider API• Expresses interest in classes via
@HandlesTypes• Who uses it ?
– Mojarra (JSF2) is bootstrapped into GlassFish• No “faces-config.xml” or “web.xml”
– Jersey (JAX-RS) registers root Application• No (or portable) “web.xml”
19
Dynamic RegistrationJava Server Faces
@SuppressWarnings({"UnusedDeclaration"})@HandlesTypes({ ManagedBean.class, FacesComponent.class, FacesValidator.class, FacesConverter.class, FacesBehaviorRenderer.class, ResourceDependency.class, ResourceDependencies.class, ListenerFor.class, ListenersFor.class, UIComponent.class, Validator.class, Converter.class, Renderer.class
})public class FacesInitializer implements ServletContainerInitializer {
// NOTE: Loggins should not be used with this class.
private static final String FACES_SERVLET_CLASS = FacesServlet.class.getName();
20
public void onStartup(Set<Class<?>> classes, ServletContext servletContext) throws ServletException {
if (shouldCheckMappings(classes, servletContext)) {
Map<String,? extends ServletRegistration> existing = servletContext.getServletRegistrations(); for (ServletRegistration registration : existing.values()) { if (FACES_SERVLET_CLASS.equals(registration.getClassName())) { // FacesServlet has already been defined, so we're // not going to add additional mappings; return; } } ServletRegistration reg = servletContext.addServlet("FacesServlet", "javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet"); reg.addMapping("/faces/*", "*.jsf", "*.faces"); servletContext.setAttribute(RIConstants.FACES_INITIALIZER_MAPPINGS_ADDED, Boolean.TRUE);

21
Resource Sharing
• Static and JSP not confined to document root of the web application
• May be placed in WEB-INF/lib/[*.jar]/META-INF/resources
• Resources in root take precedence over those in bundled JAR
• Container must honor this new location when – Processing HTTP requests– Calls to ServletContext#getResource[AsStream]
22
Resource Sharing – Sample Code
myapp.war WEB-INF/lib/catalog.jar /META-INF/resources/catalog/books.html
http://localhost:8080/myapp/catalog/books.html
23
Why Asynchronous Servlets?
l Not for Async IO– Requests mostly small (single packet)– Hard to asynchronously produce large responses– Async IO support waiting for NIO2
l Async Servlets are for:– Waiting for resources (eg JDBC connection)– Waiting for events (eg Chat)– Waiting for responses (eg web services)
24
Blocking waiting consumes resources
l Web Application using remote web services– Handling 1000 requests / sec– 50% requests call remote web service– 500 threads in container thread pool
l If remote web service is slow (1000ms)– Thread starvation in 1 second!– 50% of requests use all 500 threads
25
Asynchronous APIEnable asynchronous support
l Configured in– web.xml:
<async-supported>true</async-supported>
– With annotation: @WebServlet(asyncSupported=true)
– Programmatic: registration.setAsyncSupported(true)
26
Asynchronous Servlets – Sample Code
AsyncContext context = request.startAsync();
context.addListener(new AsyncListener() { … });
context.dispatch(“/request.jsp”);
//context.start(Runnable action);
. . .
context.complete();

27
SecurityAnnotations to define security constraints
l @ServletSecurity used to define access control constraints
l @HttpConstraint for all HTTP methodsl @HttpMethodConstraint for specific HTTP
methodsl More specific wins
28
Security – Sample Code
@ServletSecurity( httpMethodConstraints = { @HttpMethodConstraint(value = "GET", rolesAllowed = "R1"), @HttpMethodConstraint(value = "POST", rolesAllowed = "R2") })
public class MyServlet extends HttpServlet {
// Servlet methods
}
29
SecurityProgrammatic container authentication and logout
> HttpServletRequest#login(String username, String password)– Replacement for FBL– Application supervises credential collection
> HttpServletRequest#authenticate(HttpServletResponse)– Application initiates container mediated authentication from a
resource that is not covered by any authentication constraints– Application decides when authentication must occur
30
Miscellaneous Features
l Session tracking cookie configuration– Via web.xml– Programmatic via javax.servlet.SessionCookieConfig
l Support for HttpOnly cookie attribute– Example:
servletContext.getSessionCookieConfig().setHttpOnly(true)
l Default error page<error-page> <error-code>...</error-code> <exception-type>...</exception-type> <location>/404.html</location> </error-page>
31
Miscellaneous Features / API (contd)
ServletRequest#getServletContext
ServletRequest#getDispatcherType
