}Description
The Servlet API's
ServletContext is useful for, amongst other things, storing global application attributes, reading local server resources and establishing information about the servlet container.
Application attributes which are normally accessible from the
getAttribute can also be indexed into using the array index operator or de-reference operator:
def mySetting = servletContext["mySetting"]servletContext["mySetting"] = "foo"asset "foo" == servletContext.mySetting
