When does the servlet reference in the ActionForm get set?

["White, Joshua A (CASD, IT)" <Jo...@thehartford.com>]

I have been trying unsuccessfully to get a reference to the ServletContext
from my BaseForm class which extends ActionForm.  I have attempted to get a
reference to the ActionServlet by calling the inherited "getServlet" method
as well as referencing the inherited "servlet" field.  Both are returning
null.  

When does this reference get set?  Should I not be receiving null?

I was actually talking about the "servlet" member variable of the ActionForm
class.  Is there any difference if I reference the "servlet" variable or the
getServlet method?  The servlet member variable is null.  I have not dug up
the source yet, but I would imagine the getServlet method returns the local
copy of the servlet field.  Both are "protected".  Both are null when I use
them.

Any ideas?

I think he means the getServlet() method of ActionForm.

Might have if you posted the code to which you are referring.

Hello all,

I am having trouble determining why the "servlet" reference in my formbean
is null.  I have created a class "BaseForm" which extends ActionForm.  Any
ideas?
