I don't believe this is possible--in fact, I don't think that all servers
even support servlet mapping, although they should. It's certainly possible
to invoke a servlet by class name under some platforms, so no mapped name
will exist.
You could try calling HttpServletRequest.getServletPath() and using some
portion of the data retrieved there. For instance, if the servlet is
invoked by calling /servlet/{mapped name} you could strip off the /servlet/
and have the mapped name.
Of course, this will fail if you use servlet aliases. If you map *.mml to
MyMarkupServlet, then the getServletPath() return value will probably be
something like /path/file.mml, which isn't much good. Same to mapping
MyServlet to a fixed URI, although you could probably use that URI (or some
permutation) as your identifier.
Let us know how you do it.
