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

  method public void service(BBjspServletContext context!)

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

    #response!.setContentType("text/html")
    s! = #response!.getOutputStream()

    s!.write("<html><body><h1>Hello from BBJSP</h1>")
    s!.write("Method:"+ #request!.getMethod())
    s!.write("</body></html>")
