Servlet / JSP Scoped Objects
The following are ways to obtain Application scope attributes, Session scope attributes, Request scope attributes, Request parameters and framework Context scope parameters:-
Application Scope Attribute
Assuming there's an attribute with name 'myApplicationAttribute' in the Application scope.
Session Scope Attribute
Assuming there's an attribute with name 'mySessionAttribute' in the Session scope.
Request Scope Attribute
Assuming there's an attribute with name 'myRequestAttribute' in the Request scope.
Request Parameter
Assuming there's a request parameter myParameter (e.g. http://host/myApp/myAction.action?myParameter=one).
Context Scope Parameter
Assuming there's a parameter with the name myContextParam in our context.
Tag Support
See the JSP Tags documentation for information on how to use the generic Struts Tags provided by the framework.
