The destruction phase of the JSP life cycle represents when a JSP is being removed from use by a container.

The jspDestroy() method is the JSP equivalent of the destroy method for servlets. Override jspDestroy when you need to perform any cleanup, such as releasing database connections or closing open files. 

The jspDestroy() method has the following form:

public void jspDestroy()

{

// Your cleanup code goes here.

}
