How to get hold of current servlet context and session in axis 1.2

my webservice running is axis1.2RC3 needs to access current servlet session 
and servletContext. I believe axis is running as a servlet so I can get hold 
of the session and servlet context.
 I am using this code:
  
MessageContext messageContext = MessageContext.getCurrentContext();

HttpServlet servlet = (HttpServlet)messageContext.getProperty(
HTTPConstants.MC_HTTP_SERVLET);
ServletContext servletContext = (ServletContext)servlet.getServletContext();

HttpSession session =(HttpSession)messageContext.getProperty(
HTTPConstants.MC_HTTP_SERVLETREQUEST);

I am getting java.lang.ClassCastException on casting to HttpSession. I am 
doing the right thing

Thanks

If I see it right, you are missing a step. 

This instruction:
(HttpSession)messageContext.getProperty( HTTPConstants.MC_HTTP_SERVLETREQUEST);

will return a HttpServletRequest object, not a HttpSessionObject.

You need to do:
HttpSession session =((HttpServletRequest)messageContext.getProperty(
HTTPConstants.MC_HTTP_SERVLETREQUEST)).getSession();
