Answer 1

A simple example is :

@WebServlet(value="/hello")
public class HelloServlet extends HttpServlet {

    @Override
    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response)
        throws ServletException, IOException {
    PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

    // then write the data of the response
    String username = request.getParameter("username");
    if (username != null && username.length() > 0) {
        out.println("
Hello, " + username + "!
");
       }
    }

}
