Enhance-athon Day 18

I focused on implicit objects of the Expression Language (EL) today. I found out one interesting bit of information. The servlet init params are not directly accessible from EL. Context init params are. I wonder why it was designed that way? I demonstrated accessing header and context init param values in the TestFour.jsp.. Not all of the valid html headers displayed when I tried them. I don’t know if that is a lack of Tomcat or EL. I suspect the former.
In Ruby I copied to </a href=”http://64.57.169.96/viewcvs/ruby/practice/100days/day18/?root=CSLcvs” target=”_blank”>example scripts</a> using TCPServer. I ran the scripts and examined the code. I have plans to start writing my own script tommorrow using threads. in the chatserver.rb script I was not able to find a satisfactory explanation of why it would “block”. This claim was made by the scripts author and I have yet to verify it.
For Guitar practice I watched a video that I ordered. It has some potential but I’ll wait and see.
