Client type detection support
In addition to providing the page list mapping capability, the PageListServlet also provides Client Type Detection support. A servlet determines the markup language type that a calling client needs in the response, using the configuration information in the client_types.xml file.
Client type detection support allows a servlet, extending the PageListServlet, to call an appropriate JSP file. The servlet invokes the callPage method, which calls a JSP file based on the markup-language type of the request.
The PageListServlet custom extension is deprecated in WAS V7.0 and will be removed in a future release. Re-architect the legacy applications to use javax.servlet.filter classes instead of com.ibm.servlet classes.
