Which of the following are correct statements? Select the two correct answers.

  1. A. The getRequestDispatcher method of ServletContext class takes the full path of the servlet, whereas the getRequestDispatcher method of HttpServletRequest class takes the path of the servlet relative to the ServletContext.

  2. B. The include method defined in the RequestDispatcher class can be used to access one servlet from another. But it can be invoked only if no output has been sent to the server.

  3. C. The getRequestDispatcher(String URL) is defined in both ServletContext and HttpServletRequest method

  4. D. The getNamedDispatcher(String) defined in HttpServletRequest class takes the name of the servlet and returns an object of RequestDispatcher class.


Correct Option: A,C

AI Explanation

To answer this question, let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:

Option A) The statement is correct. The getRequestDispatcher method of the ServletContext class takes the full path of the servlet, whereas the getRequestDispatcher method of the HttpServletRequest class takes the path of the servlet relative to the ServletContext. This allows for flexibility in specifying the servlet path.

Option B) The statement is incorrect. The include method defined in the RequestDispatcher class can be used to access one servlet from another, regardless of whether any output has been sent to the server. It does not depend on the presence or absence of output.

Option C) The statement is correct. The getRequestDispatcher(String URL) method is indeed defined in both the ServletContext and HttpServletRequest classes. This allows for obtaining a request dispatcher from either the application context or a specific request.

Option D) The statement is incorrect. The getNamedDispatcher(String) method is not defined in the HttpServletRequest class. It is only defined in the ServletContext class. This method allows for obtaining a request dispatcher by specifying the name of the servlet.

Therefore, the correct statements are A and C.
