        The initialize method is called to initialize an uninitialized PageContext so that it may be used by a JSP Implementation class to service an incoming request and response within it's _jspService() method.

        This method is typically called from JspFactory.getPageContext() in order to initialize state.

        This method is required to create an initial JspWriter, and associate the "out" name in page scope with this newly created object.

        This method should not be used by page or tag library authors.

        Description copied from class: PageContext

        Causes the resource specified to be processed as part of the current ServletRequest and ServletResponse being processed by the calling Thread. The output of the target resources processing of the request is written directly to the ServletResponse output stream.

        The current JspWriter "out" for this JSP is flushed as a side-effect of this call, prior to processing the include.

        If the relativeUrlPath begins with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the DOCROOT of the ServletContext for this JSP. If the path does not begin with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the URL of the request that was mapped to the calling JSP.

        It is only valid to call this method from a Thread executing within a _jspService(...) method of a JSP.

        Specified by:
        include in class PageContext
        Parameters:
        relativeUrlPath - specifies the relative URL path to the target resource to be included
        Throws:
        ServletException - if the page that was forwarded to throws a ServletException

                            java.io.IOException
        Description copied from class: PageContext

        Causes the resource specified to be processed as part of the current ServletRequest and ServletResponse being processed by the calling Thread. The output of the target resources processing of the request is written directly to the current JspWriter returned by a call to getOut().

        If flush is true, The current JspWriter "out" for this JSP is flushed as a side-effect of this call, prior to processing the include. Otherwise, the JspWriter "out" is not flushed.

        If the relativeUrlPath begins with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the DOCROOT of the ServletContext for this JSP. If the path does not begin with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the URL of the request that was mapped to the calling JSP.

        It is only valid to call this method from a Thread executing within a _jspService(...) method of a JSP.

        Specified by:
        include in class PageContext
        Parameters:
        relativeUrlPath - specifies the relative URL path to the target resource to be included
        flush - True if the JspWriter is to be flushed before the include, or false if not.
        Throws:
        ServletException - if the page that was forwarded to throws a ServletException

                            java.io.IOException
        Description copied from class: PageContext

        This method is used to re-direct, or "forward" the current ServletRequest and ServletResponse to another active component in the application.

        If the relativeUrlPath begins with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the DOCROOT of the ServletContext for this JSP. If the path does not begin with a "/" then the URL specified is calculated relative to the URL of the request that was mapped to the calling JSP.

        It is only valid to call this method from a Thread executing within a _jspService(...) method of a JSP.

        Once this method has been called successfully, it is illegal for the calling Thread to attempt to modify the ServletResponse object. Any such attempt to do so, shall result in undefined behavior. Typically, callers immediately return from _jspService(...) after calling this method.

        Specified by:
        forward in class PageContext
        Parameters:
        relativeUrlPath - specifies the relative URL path to the target resource as described above

        • clear() must throw an IOException
        • clearBuffer() does nothing
        • getBufferSize() always returns 0
        • getRemaining() always returns 0

      • handlePageException

        public void handlePageException​(java.lang.Exception ex)

                                        ServletException
        Description copied from class: PageContext

        This method is intended to process an unhandled 'page' level exception by forwarding the exception to the specified error page for this JSP. If forwarding is not possible (for example because the response has already been committed), an implementation dependent mechanism should be used to invoke the error page (e.g. "including" the error page instead).

        If no error page is defined in the page, the exception should be rethrown so that the standard servlet error handling takes over.

        A JSP implementation class shall typically clean up any local state prior to invoking this and will return immediately thereafter. It is illegal to generate any output to the client, or to modify any ServletResponse state after invoking this call.

        This method is kept for backwards compatibility reasons. Newly generated code should use PageContext.handlePageException(Throwable).

        Specified by:
        handlePageException in class PageContext
        Parameters:
        ex - the exception to be handled
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurred while invoking the error page
        ServletException - if an error occurs while invoking the error page
        See Also:
        PageContext.handlePageException(Throwable)

        public void handlePageException​(java.lang.Throwable t)
                                 throws java.io.IOException,
                                        ServletException
        Description copied from class: PageContext

        This method is intended to process an unhandled 'page' level exception by forwarding the exception to the specified error page for this JSP. If forwarding is not possible (for example because the response has already been committed), an implementation dependent mechanism should be used to invoke the error page (e.g. "including" the error page instead).

        If no error page is defined in the page, the exception should be rethrown so that the standard servlet error handling takes over.

        This method is intended to process an unhandled "page" level exception by redirecting the exception to either the specified error page for this JSP, or if none was specified, to perform some implementation dependent action.

        A JSP implementation class shall typically clean up any local state prior to invoking this and will return immediately thereafter. It is illegal to generate any output to the client, or to modify any ServletResponse state after invoking this call.

        Proprietary method to evaluate EL expressions. XXX - This method should go away once the EL interpreter moves out of JSTL and into its own project. For now, this is necessary because the standard machinery is too slow.
        Parameters:
        expression - The expression to be evaluated
        expectedType - The expected resulting type
        pageContext - The page context
        functionMap - Maps prefix and name to Method
        Returns:
        The result of the evaluation
        Throws:
        ELException
