/**
*
* Defines a set of methods that a servlet uses to communicate with its
* servlet container, for example, to get the MIME type of a file, dispatch
* requests, or write to a log file.
*
* There is one context per "web application" per Java Virtual Machine. (A
* "web application" is a collection of servlets and content installed under a
* specific subset of the server's URL namespace such as /catalog
* and possibly installed via a .war file.)
*
*
In the case of a web
* application marked "distributed" in its deployment descriptor, there will
* be one context instance for each virtual machine. In this situation, the
* context cannot be used as a location to share global information (because
* the information won't be truly global). Use an external resource like
* a database instead.
*
*
The ServletContext object is contained within
* the {@link ServletConfig} object, which the Web server provides the
* servlet when the servlet is initialized.
