public class create

extends SG8Servlet

A servlet for creating new entries in the database. If the request does not name a context and object, the servlet will throw an exception. If the session does not contain an authenticated connection to the given context the path is stored in the session and the request is forwarded to the authenticate JSP. If the input does not specify an identifier or initial attribute values, a corresponding SG8Discovery bean is constructed and passed through the session to the initialize JSP. Otherwise, a new object is initialized from inputs, verified, and created. The results are packed into an SG8Discovery and are sent to the introduce JSP.
