Unless you can use a Servlet 2.5-spec container, I don't think you can
do what you want to do. It looks like you want the webapp's context path
for logging (i.e. the "/myWebapp"), but there's no access to it before
the 2.5-spec (though I'm not sure why... it seems like a basic piece of
information that should not require a request to fetch).
Since it's just for logging, I'm sure that
ServletContext.getServletContextName will meet your needs... you'll just
have to set a <display-name> in your deployment descriptor (web.xml).
