I am a java newbie but would like to properly seperate the business and presentation logic of my web application. I did it first by using servlets to do all processing and JSP only for presentation to the user. However, i passed data from servlets to JSP and vice-versa using session.get/set attributes. Upon further reading i discovered that i should use a JavaBean to do the transfering of data. Now I'm confused, should i do away with servlets altogether and just package the functions into JavaBeans or should it be JavaBeans <-> Servlets <-> JSP? Also, is it possible for a servlet and JSP to share the same instance of a JavaBean?    More>>

Sorry for the long question. Please help. Thanks!

I will recommend use Servlet,JSP,Java Beans.


Use Servlet as Controller


Use Jave Bean for encapsulating all business logic


Use JSP for View



All request will go through controller servlet and servlet can decide to which view It should forward the request.
Before forwarding the request to JSP, Servlet can call
another Helper object for gathering all the required data
for the JSP



Thanks

You should use either JSP-JavaBean or Servlet-JavaBean. When to use a servlet or a JSP is up to you, but one approach is to use JSPs where there is a lot of straight HTML on the page and servlets for pages which requrie lots of java code. Any javabean can be called by either a servlet or jsp.
