What development kit(s) needed for Servlet?
Correct me if i'm wrong, before developing the servlet, i need to download the JavaServer Web Development Kit, right?(I get this from a tutorial website) But when i try to look for downloads here i couldn't find this development kit. I was directed to this url:http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/ There are a lot of links. I don't know which is which. Currently, i have jdk1.6.0 with me, is that good enough to develop the servlet? If not, please tell me the exact location to download the JavaServer Web Development Kit. Thank You.

JavaServer Web Development Kit, Wrong
You actually need a servlet container such as tomcat or jboss, and an jdk.
Servlets are just normal classes..
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class NewServlet extends HttpServlet
{
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
{
processRequest(request, response);
}
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
{
processRequest(request, response);
}
public String getServletInfo()
{
return "Short description";
}
}
The only difference is that the class HttpServlet, which a servlet extends,
needs a container(web server) to process the http requests.
