Tips for using WebSphere Studio

WebSphere Studio provides the com.ibm.servlet.PageListServlet class to call JSP files. Servlets generated by the WebSphere Studio wizards are subclasses of this class. Such a servlet must have an associated servlet configuration file (.servlet) that specifies all JSP files that the servlet might call. For more information, see Servlet and JSP Programming with IBM WebSphere Studio and VisualAge for Java (SG24-5755), available from the IBM Redbooks Web site.
