I'm trying to pass a object of a specific class from my Servlet to a JSP-File. In the JSP-File i want to cast this object to his specific class (because request.getAttribute("car") returns only a object from type Object. But at this point i get a "Car cannot be resolved to a type"-Error.
(I don't know if there is maybe a betther or modern way to do this, because I'm new to Servlets/JSP and want to lern the basics).
Here is my code
@WebServlet(
name = "Test",
urlPatterns = {"/test"}
)
public class Test extends HttpServlet {
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) {
try {
Car car = new Car();
car.company = "BWMW";
request.setAttribute("car1", car);
request.getRequestDispatcher("test.jsp").forward(request, response);
} catch (ServletException | IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
test.jsp:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<% Car car = (Car) request.getAttribute("car");
out.println(car.company);
%>
</body>
</html>
