## Class HttpRequestHandlerServlet

- java.lang.Object
- - javax.servlet.GenericServlet
  - - javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
    - - org.springframework.web.context.support.HttpRequestHandlerServlet

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Servlet, ServletConfig

      public class HttpRequestHandlerServlet
      extends HttpServlet

  Simple HttpServlet that delegates to an `HttpRequestHandler` bean defined in Spring's root web application context. The target bean name must match the HttpRequestHandlerServlet servlet-name as defined in `web.xml`.

  This can for example be used to expose a single Spring remote exporter, such as `HttpInvokerServiceExporter` or `HessianServiceExporter`, per HttpRequestHandlerServlet definition. This is a minimal alternative to defining remote exporters as beans in a DispatcherServlet context (with advanced mapping and interception facilities being available there).
