Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    JSP. What is wrong with this code?AccountingAllocation allocation = new AccountingAllocation("001"); it = allocatedFrom.iterator();while (it.hasNext()) {       if (allocation == null) continue;       System.out.println("Value = " + allocation.getValue()); }

    • A.

      You can't use continue in a while loop.

    • B.

      Endless loop because it.next() is missing.

    • C.

      Never print anything because allocation is always null.

    • D.

      Allocation.getValue() Could give nullPointerException.

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    B. Endless loop because it.next() is missing.
    Explanation
    The code provided creates an instance of the AccountingAllocation class and assigns it to the "allocation" variable. Then, it initializes an iterator called "it" using the allocatedFrom collection. The while loop checks if the iterator has a next element, and if so, it prints the value of the "allocation" variable. However, the code does not call the "it.next()" method inside the loop, which means the iterator will always point to the same element, causing an endless loop.

    JSP.  What is wrong with this statement on a JSP page?<%=session.getAttribute("NominalReportTitle");%> 

    • A.

      You need to delete the ; character

    • B.

      Use

    • C.

      Use

    • D.

      None of them

    Correct Answer
    A. You need to delete the ; character
    Explanation
    The statement on the JSP page is incorrect because it includes a semicolon character (;) at the end. In JSP, the semicolon is not required at the end of an expression. Therefore, to fix the statement, the semicolon should be deleted.

  • 3. 

    JSP. What is the key difference between using a < jsp:forward > and HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect()?

    • A.

      Forward executes on the server while sendRedirect() executes on the client.

    • B.

      Forward executes on the client while sendRedirect() executes on the server.

    • C.

      The two methods perform identically.

    • D.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Forward executes on the server while sendRedirect() executes on the client.
    Explanation
    The key difference between using a and HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect() is that the forward executes on the server while sendRedirect() executes on the client. This means that when using , the server handles the redirection internally without involving the client, while with sendRedirect(), the server sends a response to the client with a new URL, and the client then initiates a new request to that URL.

    JSP. When a JSP page is compiled, what is it turned into ?

    • A.

      Applet

    • B.

      Servlet

    • C.

      Application

    • D.

      Mailet

    Correct Answer
    B. Servlet
    Explanation
    When a JSP page is compiled, it is turned into a Servlet. JSP (JavaServer Pages) is a technology that allows the creation of dynamic web pages. During the compilation process, the JSP page is translated into a Java Servlet, which is a server-side component that generates dynamic content. The Servlet is then executed by the web server to produce the desired output. Therefore, the correct answer is Servlet.

    JSP. What is wrong with the following code ? <%if(strPassword.equals("boss")){< jsp:forward page="Welcome.jsp" flush="true" / >}else{}%>

    • A.

      Unmatched bracket in for statement

    • B.

      Flush attribute must be false

    • C.

      Keyword 'file' should be used instead of 'page' in the action

    • D.

      Actions cannot be used within scriptlet blocks

    Correct Answer
    D. Actions cannot be used within scriptlet blocks
    Explanation
    The given code is incorrect because actions, such as jsp:forward, cannot be used within scriptlet blocks. In this code, the jsp:forward action is being used within the scriptlet block, which is not allowed. Actions should be used outside of the scriptlet block.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    JSP. What is wrong with the following code ?<%Cookie c = new Cookie("UserName", "Alastair Gulland");response.addCookie(c);%>

    • A.

      Cookie class can not take parameters in it's constructor

    • B.

      The request object is used for creating cookies

    • C.

      Although no error will be reported the use of the action means that the response object can't be used to create cookies.

    • D.

      The action must be placed inside the script block

    Correct Answer
    C. Although no error will be reported the use of the action means that the response object can't be used to create cookies.
    Explanation
    The use of the `` action in the code indicates that it is written in JSP scriptlet. However, the correct way to create cookies in JSP is by using the `` action. So, although no error will be reported, the use of the `` action means that the response object cannot be used to create cookies.

  • 7. 

    JSP. The < jsp:include /> action can pass parameters to the page which it is including. How does this second page obtain thevalue of these parameters ?

    • A.

      Using the < jsp:readParam /> action

    • B.

      Using the < jsp:getParam /> action

    • C.

      Use the request.getParameter() method

    Correct Answer
    B. Using the < jsp:getParam /> action
    Explanation
    The second page obtains the value of the parameters passed by the action by using the action. This action retrieves the value of the specified parameter from the request object and makes it available for use in the second page. The action allows the second page to access and utilize the passed parameters effectively.

  • 8. 

    JSP. What is the difference between doing an include or a forward with a RequestDispatcher ?

    • A.

      The two methods provide the same functionality, but with different levels of persistence.

    • B.

      The forward method is deprecated as of JSP 1.1 and the include method should be used in order to substitute portions of a dynamic display at runtime.

    • C.

      The include method transfers control to a dynamic resource, while the forward method allows for dynamic substitution of another JPS pages output, returning control to the calling resource.

    • D.

      He forward method transfers control to the designated resource, while the include method invokes the designated resource, substitutes its output dynamically in the display, and returns control to the calling page.

    Correct Answer
    D. He forward method transfers control to the designated resource, while the include method invokes the designated resource, substitutes its output dynamically in the display, and returns control to the calling page.
    Explanation
    The explanation provided correctly states that the forward method transfers control to the designated resource, while the include method invokes the designated resource, substitutes its output dynamically in the display, and returns control to the calling page. This means that when using the forward method, the control is completely transferred to the new resource, whereas when using the include method, the output of the new resource is included in the current display and the control is returned to the calling page.

    JSP. Choose the statement that best describes the relationship between JSP and servlets:

    • A.

      Servlets are built on JSP semantics and all servlets are compiled to JSP pages for runtime usage.

    • B.

      JSP and servlets are unrelated technologies.

    • C.

      Servlets and JSP are competing technologies for handling web requests. Servlets are being superseded by JSP, which is preferred. The two technologies are not useful in combination.

    • D.

      JSPs are built on servlet semantics and all JSPs are compiled to servlets for runtime usage.

    Correct Answer
    D. JSPs are built on servlet semantics and all JSPs are compiled to servlets for runtime usage.
    Explanation
    JSPs (JavaServer Pages) are built on servlet semantics, meaning they are designed to be a higher-level abstraction of servlets. JSPs are compiled into servlets before they are executed, allowing them to take advantage of the powerful features provided by servlets. This relationship between JSP and servlets allows developers to write dynamic web pages using the simplicity and ease of JSP syntax, while still leveraging the functionality and flexibility of servlets. Therefore, the correct answer is that JSPs are built on servlet semantics and all JSPs are compiled to servlets for runtime usage.

    JSP. Which jar file should be mandatory be there in the CLASSPATH for working with Servlet.

    • A.

      Javax.servlet.*

    • B.

      Java.servlet.*;

    • C.

      Javax.servlet.HttpRequest

    • D.

      Javax.servlet.HttpResponse

    Correct Answer
    A. Javax.servlet.*
    Explanation
    The correct answer is javax.servlet.*. This is because the javax.servlet package contains the necessary classes and interfaces for working with servlets, such as HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse. By including javax.servlet.* in the CLASSPATH, the necessary dependencies will be available for the servlet to function properly.

    • D.

      References to objects with session scope are stored in the session object associated with the page activation.

    • E.

      All above

    Correct Answer
    E. All above
    Explanation
    The given correct answer states that all the statements regarding the scope of the 'session' in JSP are true. According to the answer, objects with session scope can be accessed from pages processing requests in the same session, it is not legal to define an object with session scope from a non-session-aware page, all references to the object are released after the session ends, and references to objects with session scope are stored in the session object associated with the page activation.

    • A.

      Javax

    • B.

      Java

    • C.

      Java.io

    • D.

      Java.lang

    Correct Answer
    A. Javax
    Explanation
    The correct answer is javax because the javax package in Java provides classes and interfaces for writing servlets. Servlets are Java programs that run on a web server and handle client requests and server responses. The javax.servlet package, which is part of the javax package, contains the necessary classes and interfaces for creating and managing servlets. Therefore, javax is the correct answer as it specifically refers to the package that enables the writing of servlets in Java.

    JSP. The wrapper function like <%! String blanknull(String s) { return (s == null) ? "" : s; } %> then use it inside your JSP form, like < input type="text" name="shoesize" value="<%=blanknull(shoesize)% >" > prevents the word  _______   from apperaring in an HTML page.

    Correct Answer(s)
    null
    Explanation
    The wrapper function "blanknull" checks if the input string is null. If it is null, it returns an empty string, otherwise it returns the input string itself. By using this function in the JSP form, specifically in the value attribute of the input tag for the "shoesize" field, it ensures that if the "shoesize" variable is null, the value attribute will be set to an empty string. This prevents the word "null" from appearing in the HTML page.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. A Servlet can handle multiple requests concurrently, and synchronize requests.
    B. Servlet support systems such as online real-time conferencing.
    C. Servlet can forward requests to other servers and Servlet.
    D. Servlet can be used to balance load among several servers that mirror the same content, and to partition a single logical service over xseveral servers, according to task type or organizational boundaries.
    Explanation
    Servlets are Java-based server-side components that can handle multiple requests concurrently and synchronize requests. They also support systems such as online real-time conferencing. Additionally, servlets have the ability to forward requests to other servers and servlets. They can also be used to balance the load among several servers that mirror the same content and partition a single logical service over several servers based on task type or organizational boundaries.

    JSP. Calling of which of the following method causes unpredictable results in the Servlet.

    • A.

      DoPost()

    • B.

      DoGet()

    • C.

      System.out.println()

    • D.

      System.exit(0);

    Correct Answer
    D. System.exit(0);
    Explanation
    Calling the method System.exit(0) causes unpredictable results in the Servlet. This method terminates the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and shuts down the entire application, including the Servlet container. As a result, any ongoing processes or requests handled by the Servlet may be abruptly terminated, leading to unpredictable behavior. It is generally not recommended to use System.exit(0) in a Servlet as it can disrupt the normal functioning of the application.

      if (i==5)

    • D.

      if i=5

    Correct Answer
    C. if (i==5)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "if (i==5)". In JavaScript, the conditional statement "if" is used to execute a block of code only if the specified condition is true. In this case, the condition is "i==5", which checks if the value of variable "i" is equal to 5. If the condition is true, the code inside the if statement will be executed.

    • D.

      if 5

    Correct Answer
    B. If (i != 5)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "if (i != 5)". This is the correct conditional statement to execute some statements only if "i" is NOT equal to 5. The "!=" operator is used to check if two values are not equal. In this case, it checks if the value of "i" is not equal to 5. If it is not equal, the statements inside the if block will be executed.

    JAVASCRIPT. Which of the following JavaScript statements use arrays?

    • A.

      setTimeout("a["+i+"]",1000)

    • B.

      k = a & i

    • C.

      k = a(i)

    Correct Answer
    A. setTimeout("a["+i+"]",1000)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is setTimeout("a["+i+"]",1000). This statement uses an array by accessing the element at index 'i' in the array 'a'. The setTimeout function allows for a delay of 1000 milliseconds before executing the code inside the quotation marks. In this case, the code is accessing an element in the array 'a' using the value of 'i' as the index.

      /etc/resolve.conf

    Correct Answer
    C. /etc/host.conf
    Explanation
    Linux uses the /etc/host.conf file to resolve hostnames. This file contains configuration information for the resolver library, which is responsible for resolving domain names to IP addresses. The /etc/host.conf file specifies the order in which the resolver library should query different sources for hostname resolution, such as DNS servers or the local hosts file. By configuring this file, administrators can control how Linux resolves hostnames and customize the resolution process according to their needs.
