/**
* Defines methods that all servlets must implement.
*
* A servlet is a small Java program that runs within a Web server.
* Servlets receive and respond to requests from Web clients,
* usually across HTTP, the HyperText Transfer Protocol.
*
*
To implement this interface, you can write a generic servlet
* that extends
* javax.servlet.GenericServlet or an HTTP servlet that
* extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.
*
*
This interface defines methods to initialize a servlet,
* to service requests, and to remove a servlet from the server.
* These are known as life-cycle methods and are called in the
* following sequence:
*
* - The servlet is constructed, then initialized with the
init method.
* - Any calls from clients to the
service method are handled.
* - The servlet is taken out of service, then destroyed with the
*
destroy method, then garbage collected and finalized.
*
*
* In addition to the life-cycle methods, this interface
* provides the getServletConfig method, which the servlet
* can use to get any startup information, and the getServletInfo
* method, which allows the servlet to return basic information about itself,
* such as author, version, and copyright.
*

Servlets typically run inside multithreaded servlet containers
