Struts and context

[Josep]

Hi,

I have a doubt with struts.

How do I put some value in a context of application from an action?

I have a web application with a "listener" that puts "ds" key in the
context of application with de value of a Datasource retrieved with JNDI
.. THE pool was created with tomcat.

And then I want to call DAO's from my Action, but my DAO's requires that
I pass the Datasource.

How do I for put something in the context of application and where?

The "listener" puts the value when the context of application is
created, but then, how do I retrieve this value inside an action?


Thanks a lot.

You could use something like this to retrieve the value in an action:
String myValue= (String )
request.getSession().getServletContext().getAttribute("mykey");

To set it:
request.getSession().getServletContext().setAttribute("mykey",
"differentValue");
