Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hello!

Im new to jsp and would appreciate some help.

I can talk to my DB with JDBC, no problem, but I would like some advice on how to "box up" the classes I wrote to use them in JDBC.

Do I use Beans ? Servlets ? Custom Tag Libraries ? Or is it easiest just to the a "directive.include" at the top of my jsp file and include the class directly ?

And the I need this one particular class to be allocated ONCE for my entire application (and shared between all the sessions)... there is a nice jsp syntax to do this right, can someone please lend a hand ?
