Hi All,
@SlingServlet(
paths = { "/content/data" }, generateComponent = false)
In couple of servlets, have seen the above. Went through http://sling.apache.org/documentation/the-sling-engine/servlets.html.
But could not get
a] What exactly is the purpose of generateComponent = false.
Any thoughts on this will be helpful.
@slingServlet includes @Component internally and hence we dont use that annotation specifically which is nothing by generateComponent=true (refer [1]). This enables all the methods or life cycle of component like activate, deactivate etc...
If you are using @Component also along with your @slingServlet, then we need to use generateComponent=false for @slingServlet else it would have a conflict and throw an exception. refer [2]
