JSP

发布于 2016-07-12 23:17:17

I read about JSP in a book many years ago, and recently decided to learn on my own. I now know how to use JSP scriptlets, expressions, and declarations

    <%! String str = "Hello World" %>
    <%= str.length() %>
    <% str=str.substring(0,5) %>

But I have read in many places (on this site and elsewhere) that I shouldn't use scriptlets. This is one such question: Eclipse using Classes in JSP

My questions are:

  1. What is wrong with scriptlets?
  2. What do I use instead?

Thanks in advance for any help!

EDIT:

I do not use Servlets, but embed my JSP code onto an HTML page. UI designers with no knowledge of Java can easily modify my page. Basically I use JSP as a front end for displaying from a database and making updates to it such as when a user makes an order.

This is my personal opinion, of course. I say scriptlets are:

  1. A 1998 vintage technology that needs to disappear; a failed response to Microsoft's ASP.
  2. Ugly
  3. Hard to read
  4. Hard to maintain
  5. Discourage reuse and encapsulation
  6. Encourage putting complex logic in pages

What to use instead?

  1. The world has gone in the direction of HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, jQuery, Bootstrap, and web technologies talking to REST web services. It's a good direction.
  2. If you must stick with JSPs, start with the JSP standard template library. Keep your HTML pages looking like HTML - it'll make it easier for UI developers to maintain them.
  3. Try a more modern template solution like Thymeleaf to generate your HTML from the server side.

I agree with quite a bit of what you say, but this is a terrible answer. "HTML5" isn't an answer to "how do I create dynamically-generated web pages on a server?" The answer is something like "JSTL or Thymeleaf". Maybe lead with that next time. Also, part of the question was "why not use scriptlets" which you didn't address.

Terrible? That's not consistent with "I agree with quite a bit of what you say". There are two parts: (1) What's wrong with scriptlets, and (2) What else do I use? Did you not read item #3 in the second list?

Mamba is a new state space model architecture showing promising performance on information-dense data such as language modeling, where previous subquadratic models fall short of Transformers. It is based on the line of progress on structured state space models, with an efficient hardware-aware design and implementation in the spirit of FlashAttention.
