using java function on jsp causes an error

i'm doing a school project and i could use some help with this code: i'm trying to invoke this method on a java page:

import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;
import java.util.Properties;

import javax.mail.Message;
import javax.mail.MessagingException;
import javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication;
import javax.mail.Session;
import javax.mail.Transport;
import javax.mail.internet.AddressException;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;

package Test;
public class SendMail {

    public static void () {

        final String username = "";
        final String password = "";

        Properties props = new Properties();
        props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
        props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
        props.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com");
        props.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");

        Session session = Session.getInstance(props,
          new javax.mail.Authenticator() {
            protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
                return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password);
            }
          });

        try {

            Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
            message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));
            message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,
                InternetAddress.parse("[email protected]"));
            message.setSubject("Testing Subject");
            message.setText("Dear Mail Crawler,"
                + "\n\n No spam to my email, please!");

            Transport.send(message);

            System.out.println("Done");

        } catch (MessagingException e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
    }
}

I'm calling this function on a jsp page:

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=windows-1255"
    pageEncoding="windows-1255"%>
    <%@page import="Test.SendMail" 
       SendMail.test(); %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1255">
<title>Insert title here</title>
</head>
<body>

</body>
</html>

the java class is imported currectly but the eclipse refuses to run this program. i must add that i'm using eclipse galileo with apache tomcat. am i doing something wrong?

You appear to be trying to call a method called test(). Your class has a method called send() instead.

Also, since it's a static method, you don't need an instance of the class to call it. Simply call SendMail.send();.

after you compile the code successfully, place it under the web-inf/classes/ folder. place all the jar file you need to compile this class under the web-inf/lib folder.

within the jsp page you should have this

......
< %@ page import="test.SendMail" % >

<% //call the function here

SendMail.send();

%>
.....

I suspect this is the problem:

charset=windows-1255

I suggest you use UTF-8 instead. It would be far more portable.

(There's no obvious sign that you even are calling the method from the page.)

By the way, currently you've got a method with the same name as your class - I would strongly discourage you from doing that. Aside from anything else, Java conventions are to use camelCase for method names.
