Can I include normal Java classes in servlets?
Any Java class can be used in a Web application, provided you make the classes available to the servlet container at runtime. The Java API classes can be used directly by adding import statements to your servlet class. Other supporting classes can also be imported, but these classes must be added to the classes or lib directory of your application. If you need to configure the supporting classes, this can be done with standard servlet configuration features using the ServletConfig and ServletContext objects available to the init(ServletConfig) method.
