[strut2] How to get ServletActionContext

Newbie question here. 

In my struts1 apps stuff gets loaded into an application container on 
start-up using ActionServlet, e.g. 
servlet.getServletContext().setAttribute( 
IConstants.APPLICATION_CONTAINER_KEY, app ); .

I'm trying to do the comparable in struts2 using a bean in 
applicationContext.xml:

<bean id="apptainer" 
class="com.clearridgeconsult.struts2.framework.AgricolaApplicationContainer" 
 >
        <constructor-arg index="0" 
value="/WEB-INF/config/NALTIndexConfig.xml"/>
        <constructor-arg index="1" 
value="/WEB-INF/config/AgricolaIndexConfig.xml"/>
 </bean>

However, in the AgricolaApplicationContainer constructor, 
ServletActionContext.getServletContext()  is null.  From seaching the 
list archives, I've tried setting up a factory bean in 
applicationContext.xml to make the servlet context available:

<bean id="contextFactory" 
class="com.clearridgeconsult.struts2.framework.StrutsServletContextLoader"/>
    <bean id="servletCtx" factory-bean="contextFactory" 
factory-method="getServletContext"/>
    <bean id="apptainer" 
class="com.clearridgeconsult.struts2.framework.AgricolaApplicationContainer" 
 >
        <constructor-arg index="0" 
value="/WEB-INF/config/NALTIndexConfig.xml"/>
        <constructor-arg index="1" 
value="/WEB-INF/config/AgricolaIndexConfig.xml"/>
        <constructor-arg index="2" ref="servletCtx"/>
    </bean>

But, again, ServletActionContext.getServletContext() is null in the 
contextFactory bean.

I'm know I'm missing some obvious point here, but how do you make 
ServletActionContext made available?

Thanks,
Gary

Uh, no sooner than I sent this query did I realize that adding 
singleton="false" to the factory bean solves my problem.
Thanks
