Hello, I was searching around in the struts-user list archives for the correct getServletContext() syntax and found Robert's response to a post: http://www.mail-archive.com/struts-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg22768.html
I am trying to compile an ActionForm and I need to access the *application* scoped bean (not a session bean). I tried: public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request) { .... Object o = request.getSession().getServletContext().getAttribute("attribute_name"); } And it won't compile: [javac] C:\cvs work\energizer\source\edu\cccs\energizer\SupplementalForm.java:280: cannot resolve symbol [javac] symbol : method getServletContext () [javac] location: interface javax.servlet.http.HttpSession [javac] Object o = request.getSession().getServletContext().getAttribute("attribute_name"); [javac] The difference btw what I'm doing and what Robert had suggested is that I'm trying to do it within the ActionForm and not within the Action, but I can't figure out why it won't work in the ActionForm. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
