A ServletConfig reference is passed in the call to the init() method of your
servlet. From this you may use the getServletContext() method to get the
context. One thing to remember is that this does not get called until the
servlet is initialized and would be invalidated when it is destroyed. I suggest
you check the API docs for more information.
