I want to establish a communication between a Jquery function and a servlet in tomcat.
Servlet Code:
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
public class Test extends HttpServlet {
public static String getBody(HttpServletRequest request) throws IOException {
String body = null;
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
BufferedReader bufferedReader = null;
try {
InputStream inputStream = request.getInputStream();
if (inputStream != null) {
bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream));
char[] charBuffer = new char[128];
int bytesRead = -1;
while ((bytesRead = bufferedReader.read(charBuffer)) > 0) {
stringBuilder.append(charBuffer, 0, bytesRead);
}
} else {
stringBuilder.append("");
}
} catch (IOException ex) {
throw ex;
} finally {
if (bufferedReader != null) {
try {
bufferedReader.close();
} catch (IOException ex) {
throw ex;
}
}
}
body = stringBuilder.toString();
return body;
}
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException, ServletException {
response.setContentType("text/html");
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
System.out.println(getBody(request));
out.println("Success Call Ajax POST");
}
public void doGet( HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response ) throws ServletException, IOException{
response.setContentType("text/html");
response.setCharacterEncoding( "UTF-8" );
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("Get Method");
}
}
The servlet identity is defined in web.xml
web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd"
version="3.0">
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Test</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.servlets.Test</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Test</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/toto</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
And the following HTML contains the JQuery function:
Jquery code:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function login(){
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://localhost:8080/test/toto",
data: "POST Call",
success: function(result){
alert("success call"+result);
},
error: function(XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
alert("Status: " + textStatus); alert("Error: " + errorThrown);
}
});
}
</script>
<title>My AJAX</title>
</head>
<body>
<button type="button" onclick="login()">Click Me!</button>
</body>
I tested the servlet with the browser, it's fine. When I tried the HTML/js app and I clicked in the button I got in the eclipse console the message displayed by the instruction System.out.println(getBody(request)); "POST Call" but I got in the browser the error alert. So ajax function call successfully the method post in the servlet but the servlet can't return successfully the response to the browser. It seems that there's a problem in the servlet. Can someone help me please?
