<html>
    <body>
        <h1>Hello from BBJSP</h1>")
        <c:if test='<%= #gerSession().isNew() %>' >

  field private BBjspWebRequest request!
  field private BBjspWebResponse response!
  field private BBjspWebSession session!

  method public void service(BBjspServletContext context!)

    #request! = context!.getRequest()
    #response! = context!.getResponse()

    #session! = #request!.getSession()
    s! = #response!.getOutputStream()

    #response!.setContentType("text/html")

    s!.write("<html><body><h1>Hello from BBJSP</h1>")
    if #session!.isNew()
      s!.write("NEW SESSION")
    endif
    s!.write("</body></html>")
