/**
 * The JspPage interface describes the generic interaction that a JSP Page Implementation class must satisfy; pages that
 * use the HTTP protocol are described by the HttpJspPage interface.
 * <p>
 * <B>Two plus One Methods</B>
 * <p>
 * The interface defines a protocol with 3 methods; only two of them: jspInit() and jspDestroy() are part of this
 * interface as the signature of the third method: _jspService() depends on the specific protocol used and cannot be
 * expressed in a generic way in Java.
 * <p>
 * A class implementing this interface is responsible for invoking the above methods at the appropriate time based on
 * the corresponding Servlet-based method invocations.
 * <p>
 * The jspInit() and jspDestroy() methods can be defined by a JSP author, but the _jspService() method is defined
 * automatically by the JSP processor based on the contents of the JSP page.
 * <p>
 * <B>_jspService()</B>
 * <p>
 * The _jspService()method corresponds to the body of the JSP page. This method is defined automatically by the JSP
 * container and should never be defined by the JSP page author.
 * <p>
 * If a superclass is specified using the extends attribute, that superclass may choose to perform some actions in its
 * service() method before or after calling the _jspService() method. See using the extends attribute in the JSP_Engine
 * chapter of the JSP specification.
 * <p>
 * The specific signature depends on the protocol supported by the JSP page.
 *
 * <pre>
 * public void _jspService(<em>ServletRequestSubtype</em> request,
 *                             <em>ServletResponseSubtype</em> response)
 *        throws ServletException, IOException;
 * </pre>
