I would be against exposing container internals via the Servlet API as it undermines portability. What information, specifically, do you need to access and how (read, write)? I think I'd rather a solution that provided the specific access required. An added complication is that Tomcat has always aimed to support the use case of running "untrusted" apps. As such providing all apps with write access to anything considered security sensitive is going to be tricky and would probably require an configuration option to explicitly enable it. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
