ServletOutputStream

Synopsis

ServletOutputStream provides an output stream for sending binary data back to a client. A servlet can get a ServletOutputStream by calling the getOutputStream() method of ServletResponse. ServletOutputStream was the only available output method in version 1.0 of the Servlet API. For text and HTML output, it has been supplanted by PrintWriter objects produced by the getWriter() method of ServletResponse. The various print() and println() methods should therefore be regarded as legacies.
