public class AdminServlet extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
A class represents an administration servlet that is responsible to serve administrative operation such as configuration parameter updates. Since each administration servlet needs to perform authentication information parsing and response formulation, it makes sense to encapsulate the commonalities into this class. By extending this serlvet, the subclass does not need to re-implement the request parsing code (i.e. authentication information parsing). If a subsystem needs to expose configuration parameters management, it should create an administration servlet (i.e. CAAdminServlet) and register it to RemoteAdmin subsystem. public class CAAdminServlet extends AdminServlet { ... }
