unable to access request object from http servlet

chintu Parameshwar
chintu Parameshwar June 3, 2012

Hi,

I'm trying to use request object in a class which extends JiraWebActionSupport in my plugin.

build Error1:

cannot access javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest class file for javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest not found class file for javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest not found

String colcount = request.getParameter("MyCount");

I added servlet dependancy in pom.xml as 

<dependency>
            <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
            <artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
            <version>2.3</version>
            <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>

Now plugin is able to build/package but I'm getting following runtime error:

I see what you say about provided, but... Can you check your uploaded artifact,and verify that there isn't still a servlet-api jar in there that would explain the error? Eclipse and mavens Depdnency Hierarchy tab will help locate the source if it is.

I have tried by removing scope tag, tried replacing "provided" with "compile" text, but no luck. I will check my artifact for servlet api. Btw, I'm using NetBeans7 :( not eclipse.

Making it compile scope _will_ include it. Revert to provided and check your jar. Also, try:

mvn dependency:analyze-dep-mgt

I'm able to find servlet api jar in my plugin jar at Meta-inf/lib. This might be the reason, but how to remove it? I have installed eclipse, but my bad luck, the dependency graph feature has been removed now :(, I have tried "mvn dependency:analyze-dep-mgt" here is the result 

[INFO] [dependency:analyze-dep-mgt {execution: default-cli}]
[INFO] Found Resolved Dependency / DependencyManagement mismatches:
[INFO]    Nothing in DepMgt.
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] BUILD SUCCESSFUL

Please help me if I have any alternatives to do.

Thanks you very much!

Netbeans? Ah, Im afraid I can help you no more, I was on another continent when I last used that :/

You have a dependency issue, you need to determine your transitive dependencies, updating the one that has the compile dependency against the servlet api, you should use the maven 'exclude' configuration for that.

If you are developing a jira plugin, I would suggest using the atlassian SDK, 'atlas-create-jira5-plugin', build that template, see it doesnt have the servlet jar, add in your dependencies until that bad thing happens...
