Accessing a Database from a JSP Page
JSTL includes a number of actions for database access to make it easy to develop simple database-driven JSP applications. The actions provide the following features:
Using a connection pool for better performance and scalability
Supporting queries, updates, and inserts
Handling the most common data type conversions
Supporting a combination of database operations in one transaction
Each action is introduced as it’s used in the example in this chapter. In addition, you can find a complete description of all the actions in Appendix B.
