/**
 * HttpContext represents execution state of an HTTP process. It is a structure
 * that can be used to map an attribute name to an attribute value.
 * 
 * The primary purpose of the HTTP context is to facilitate information sharing
 * among various  logically related components. HTTP context can be used
 * to store a processing state for one message or several consecutive messages.
 * Multiple logically related messages can participate in a logical session
 * if the same context is reused between consecutive messages.
 * /
 * IMPORTANT: Please note HTTP context implementation, even when thread safe,
 * may not be used concurrently by multiple threads, as the context may contain
 * thread unsafe attributes.
