Hi :

I have defined some attributes in the servletcontext like this:

public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent event){

ServletContext context = event.getServletContext();

List<State> listState = null;
List<City> listCities = null;
try {
listState = ApiManager.getStateDao().readAllState();
listCities = ApiManager.getCityDao().readAllCity();
} catch (DAOException ex) {
java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(ContextListener.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
context.setAttribute(Constants.listStates, listState);
context.setAttribute(Constants.listCities, listCities);

log.debug("contextInitialized : void");
}

and later am trying to access the same in the intiatior like this:

public void doAfterCompose(Page page, Component[] comp)
throws java.lang.Exception {

ServletContext context = (ServletContext) Executions.getCurrent().getDesktop().getWebApp().getNativeContext();
List listStates = (List)context.getAttribute(Constants.listStates);
page.setVariable("modelStates", listStates);

super.doAfterCompose(page, comp);
}

}

but am not able to get hold of the attributes. What wrong am I doing?

regards
