I think he actually just wants the ServletContext so
he can remove the "userList" object:

Now, I know what you're thinking: doesn't
sessionDestroy() have an HttpSessionEvent argument
containing both the session and its ServletContext?

You're probably also thinking: hmm, it's unusual that
it both extends Action and implements
HttpSessionListener. (Well, *I* think it's unusual,
anyway.)

Dave,

Wow, you have a gift for following multiple simultaneous threads ;)

Oh, yeah, and the whole thing is off-topic... this has nothing to do
with Struts (other than the fact that this listener extends action).

I suppose if the listener extends Action, you can just call
this.getServlet()... but I'm pretty sure that makes no sense whatsoever.
Then again, neither does using an Action as a listener.

In fact, using an Action as a listener will result in two different
Action objects in memory... one that gets properly initialized and used
for handling requests, and one that is /not/ properly initialized and
gets used as the listener. My use of "this" above will fail miserably.

Yet another argument for doing things the way they were intended...
