Answer 1

You just need to pass servlet-mapping 's url-pattern in the getRequestDispatcher.

Let say your servlet mapping is "myMap" for the "MapOut" Servlet in the web.xml.Then it should be

RequestDispatcher dispatcher = request.getRequestDispatcher("/myMap");
dispatcher.forward(request,response);

doGet() of forwarded Servlet will be called.

Example: web.xml

      
        
        MapOut
        coreservlets.MapOut
      
      
        MapOut
        /myMap
