Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE Support for JavaServer Pages Developer's Guide 10g (9.0.4) Part Number B10320-01 |
|
This document introduces and explains the Oracle implementation of JavaServer Pages (JSP) technology, specified by an industry consortium led by Sun Microsystems. It summarizes standard features but focuses primarily on Oracle implementation details and value-added features.
JavaServer Pages technology is a component of the standard Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE). The J2EE component of the Oracle Application Server is known as the Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE (OC4J).
The OC4J JSP container in Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4) is a complete implementation of the Sun Microsystems JavaServer Pages Specification, Version 1.2
This preface contains the following sections:
This document is intended for developers interested in creating Web applications based on JavaServer Pages technology. It assumes that working Web and servlet environments already exist, and that readers are already familiar with the following:
While some information about standard JSP technology and syntax is provided in Chapter 1 and elsewhere, there is no attempt at completeness in this area. For additional information about standard JSP features, consult the Sun Microsystems JavaServer Pages Specification or other appropriate reference materials.
The JSP 1.2 specification relies on a servlet 2.3 environment, and this document is geared largely toward such environments (also considering some JSP 1.1 backward compatibility issues). The OC4J JSP container has special features for earlier servlet environments, however, and there is special discussion of these features in Appendix B as they relate to servlet 2.0 environments, particularly Apache JServ, which is included with the Oracle Application Server.
For documentation of tag libraries and utilities that are provided with the OC4J product, please refer to the Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE JSP Tag Libraries and Utilities Reference.
For a quick primer about getting started with JSP pages in OC4J, see the Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE User's Guide.
Our goal is to make Oracle products, services, and supporting documentation accessible, with good usability, to the disabled community. To that end, our documentation includes features that make information available to users of assistive technology. This documentation is available in HTML format, and contains markup to facilitate access by the disabled community. Standards will continue to evolve over time, and Oracle Corporation is actively engaged with other market-leading technology vendors to address technical obstacles so that our documentation can be accessible to all of our customers.

JAWS, a Windows screen reader, may not always correctly read the code examples in this document. The conventions for writing code require that closing braces should appear on an otherwise empty line; however, JAWS may not always read a line of text that consists solely of a bracket or brace.
This documentation may contain links to Web sites of other companies or organizations that Oracle Corporation does not own or control. Oracle Corporation neither evaluates nor makes any representations regarding the accessibility of these Web sites.
This document contains:
This chapter highlights standard JSP 1.2 technology. It is not intended as a complete reference.
This chapter provides an overview of the JSP implementation provided with OC4J, including both portable and Oracle-specific value-added features.
This contains information about required files for the OC4J JSP container, OC4J Web server configuration, and JSP configuration.
This chapter introduces basic JSP programming considerations, including JSP-servlet interaction and database access, and provides some examples.
This chapter describes JavaServer Pages XML support, primarily added in the JSP 1.2 specification. JSP XML syntax and the JSP XML view are described.
This chapter discusses a variety of general programming, configuration, and runtime issues that the developer should be aware of. It also covers considerations specific to the OC4J environment.
This chapter describes features of the OC4J JSP translator and Oracle ojspc
pretranslation utility, and discusses general and OC4J-specific deployment considerations.
This chapter describes the standard JSP 1.2 framework for custom tag libraries. There is also discussion of OC4J extended features for tag library support, and vendor-specific compile-time tags.
This chapter covers features for globalization support.
This appendix provides a brief background of servlet technology and introduces the standard JSP interfaces for translated pages.
This appendix provides details for the JServ servlet 2.0 environment. This includes deployment, configuration, and special programming considerations.
This appendix includes the Third Party License for third party products included with Oracle Application Server and discussed in this document.

Additional OC4J documents available from the Oracle Java Platform Group:
This book provides some overview and general information for OC4J; primer chapters for servlets, JSP pages, and EJBs; and general configuration and deployment instructions.
This version of the user's guide is specifically for the standalone version of OC4J, and is available when you download the standalone version from OTN. OC4J standalone is used in development environments, but not typically in production environments.
This book provides information for servlet developers regarding use of servlets and the servlet container in OC4J, including basic servlet development, use of JDBC and EJBs, building and deploying applications, and servlet and Web site configuration. Consideration is given to both OC4J in a standalone environment for development and OC4J in Oracle Application Server for production.
This book provides conceptual information and detailed syntax and usage information for tag libraries, JavaBeans, and other Java utilities provided with OC4J. There is also a summary of tag libraries from other Oracle product groups.
This book provides information about standards-based Java services supplied with OC4J, such as JTA, JNDI, JMS, JAAS, and the Oracle Application Server Java Object Cache.
This document (not to be confused with the Oracle Application Server 10g Security Guide), describes security features and implementations particular to OC4J. This includes information about using JAAS, the Java Authentication and Authorization Service, as well as other Java security technologies.
This book provides information about the EJB implementation and EJB container in OC4J.
