What is the need of a special ServletConfig object for every servlet
What is the need of a special ServletConfig object for every servlet ?
Let me be more precise . If it is only to get the initial parameters ,then i can do the same inside a servlet also . I can make a data member in my extended Servlet class like :-
publicclass MyServletextends HttpServlet
{
String name;
}
And i can initialize that member in the overridden init() method of the MyServlet class .
Again from my SertvletConfig i can get a reference to ServletContext . But straight way by using getServletContext() method inside the servlet a can get the same .
Then why i need a special ServletConfig object for every servlet ?
I am looking for something which is more specific for the ServletConfig object .In other word that function can only be done by the ServletConfig object . Pls reply soon .
With regards
