Forwarding in Tomcat

[Dan Randall <DR...@valley-media.com>]

Hi,

Using tomcat as my servlet container, if I use the forward method of a dispatcher object, say to forward an object attached to the HttpResponse to a JSP, will code after the forward in the servlet be executed normally?  Will a try...finally insure that the remaining code is executed?  Is the try finally necessary?  In a nutshell, I guess, does the forward method permanently exit a servlet method such as doGet()?

Thanks!

Dan
