The
Servlet
element defines the name of the servlet and specifies
the compiled class that implements it. Alternatively, instead of specifying a servlet class, you can
specify a JSP.
The Servlet element also contains definitions of initialization attributes.
IntelliJ IDEA provides the facilities to configure, remove,
and edit Servlet elements using the Web Module Editor
window, General tab. The tab is synchronized with the Text
tab where the code is generated based on the settings you specify.
Defining the Servlet element includes:
- Specifying the servlet name and the name of the package where the
servlet will be created.
- Customizing the initialization process by specifying
the initialization attributes of the servlet.
- Specifying the context-initialization parameters of the servlet
- Select the servlet in the Servlets Configured pane, tab General,
and click
or select in the context menu.
