How do you pass the data from one servlet to another servlet?..

Answer / debojit

First of all u have to set the value by setAttribute()
method such as:
request.setAttribute("variableName",object);

Then u have to forward that request to other servlet by
using that procedure,

ServletContext con=request.getServletContext();
RequestDispatcher rd=con.getRequestDispatcher("/servlet");
rd.forward(request,response);

U can get that information from that servlet by using the
method::
getAttribute("variableName");
