## com.sas.servlet.util
Class MethodInvocationServlet

    com.sas.servlet.util.MethodInvocationServlet

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.io.Serializable, javax.servlet.Servlet, javax.servlet.ServletConfig

    public class MethodInvocationServlet

A servlet used to generically call a method on a particular class by passing the CLASS_PARAMETER or OBJECT_PARAMETER. One of the CLASS_PARAMETER or OBJECT_PRARMETER is required, but not both. OBJECT_PARAMETER is required if invoking a method on a class instance. CLASS_PARAMETER is used for invoking static methods. If not specified explicitly then the method invoked will be of the form servletInvocationMethod(HTTPRequest, HTTPResponse). If a method name is specified via the METHOD request parameter then it will use that parameter value with a signature of (HTTPRequest, HTTPResponse)

To set the character encoding that will be set on the servlet's response, then you can place the character encoding to be used on the request object or the session. The attribute name of the key used is the String com.sas.web.keys.ComponentKeys.CHARACTER_ENCODING. The order of preference is the request and then the session. If you do not set the character encoding, then the ComponentPropertyManager.getOutputCharacterEncoding() will be used. The default value on the ComponentPropertyManager is UTF-8.
