* specifies the behavior for the Servlet implementation of
* ExternalContext. The Portlet implementation of
* ExternalContext is specified under the revision of the
* Portlet Bridge
* Specification for JavaServer Faces JSR that corresponds to
* this version of the JSF specification. See the Preface of the
* "prose document", linked
* from the javadocs, for a reference.
* If a reference to an
* ExternalContext is obtained during application startup or shutdown
* time, any method documented as "valid to call this method during
* application startup or shutdown" must be supported during application startup or shutdown
* time. The result of calling a method during application startup or shutdown time
* that does not have this designation is undefined.
