[java] Set Content-Type to application/json in jsp file

I am created some jsp file that returns as a response some json string. But I see that the Content-Type is set to txt automatically

My jsp code looks like

<%@ page import="java.util.Random" %>
<%@ page language="java" %>
<%@ page session="false" %>

<%
  String retVal = "// some json string";

     int millis = new Random().nextInt(1000);
     //    System.out.println("sleeping for " + millis + " millis");
     Thread.sleep(millis);
%>
<%=retVal%>

How can I perform something like

setHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");

in this example?

Try this piece of code, it should work too

<%
    //response.setContentType("Content-Type", "application/json"); // this will fail compilation
    response.setContentType("application/json"); //fixed
%>

Thanks, I could not used the page directive because I have to set a different content type according to some URL parameter. I will paste my code here since it's something quite common with JSON:

    <%
        String callback = request.getParameter("callback");
        response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
        if (callback != null) {
            // Equivalent to: <@page contentType="text/javascript" pageEncoding="UTF-8">
            response.setContentType("text/javascript");
        } else {
            // Equivalent to: <@page contentType="application/json" pageEncoding="UTF-8">
            response.setContentType("application/json");
        }

        [...]

        String output = "";

        if (callback != null) {
            output += callback + "(";
        }

        output += jsonObj.toString();

        if (callback != null) {
            output += ");";
        }
    %>
    <%=output %>

When callback is supplied, returns:

    callback({...JSON stuff...});

with content-type "text/javascript"

When callback is NOT supplied, returns:

    {...JSON stuff...}

with content-type "application/json"
