three-tier example that does just this. Here, the application logic (user
interface) we don't even need to worry about — Microsoft, Netscape, and
others have done the work for us. The servlet is the business logic which
is going to mediate access between the client and the RDBMS. The servlet
can be considered middleware, a vague term that refers to all the software
needed to support interactions between clients and servers.
The first thing we're going to do before we even write a servlet, however,
is to concentrate on the Fortune/Quotation server. The code for this
project component is shown in Exhibit 34-8.
How Does the Server Work?
Let's examine the code and get a general idea of what's going on here,
and how this component can be used in conjunction with servlets to com-
plement our project. First, notice that the
FortuneServer
class is a sub-
class of
methods and data
members, and the methods will remain as written unless we explicitly
override them by redefining their behavior. The server is going to be a mul-
tithreaded process so it can capably handle many concurrent requests.
