/**
 * 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. * * @see Servlet#getServletConfig * @see ServletConfig#getServletContext */ public interface ServletContext { /** * The name of the ServletContext attribute that holds the temporary file location for the web application. */ String TEMPDIR = "jakarta.servlet.context.tempdir"; /** * The name of the ServletContext attribute that holds the ordered list of web fragments for this web application. * * @since Servlet 3.0 */ String ORDERED_LIBS = "jakarta.servlet.context.orderedLibs"; /** * Return the main path associated with this context. * * @return The main context path * * @since Servlet 2.5 */ String getContextPath(); /** * Returns a ServletContext object that corresponds to a specified URL on the server. *

* This method allows servlets to gain access to the context for various parts of the server, and as needed obtain * {@link RequestDispatcher} objects from the context. The given path must be begin with "/", is interpreted * relative to the server's document root and is matched against the context roots of other web applications hosted * on this container. *

* In a security conscious environment, the servlet container may return null for a given URL. * * @param uripath a String specifying the context path of another web application in the container. * * @return the ServletContext object that corresponds to the named URL, or null if either none exists * or the container wishes to restrict this access. * * @see RequestDispatcher */ ServletContext getContext(String uripath); /** * Returns the major version of the Java Servlet API that this servlet container supports.
