jqGrid using a servlet to store the data, how to access the data from a different java class

Question

I'm using jqGrid for a table input and setting up the url as a servlet which will deal with the GET and POST requests and save the rows to a Java object.

I'm using webwork web framework and I was wondering how I can get access to the object that the servlet is saving the data to.

One way I have thought of is to just call the GET method from the Java action class which the servlet will return a JSON string with the object data.

Is there a better design for doing this?

This is probably not too clear so ask questions so I can help get across my point.

Thanks

Answer 1

Since you are using WebWork, why are you writing a Servlet? The jqGrid can post data to an action directly. Let the action do the work that the servlet is doing.
