getting Component from Application created by ServerServlet

[Tom McGee]

I need to get the Component from an Application created by
ServerServlet. I'm currently using this code:



public abstract class AbstractSpringRestletApplication extends Application {

…

   public ServletContext getServletContext(){

      ServletContext result = null;

         if ((this.getContext()!=null)&&(this.getContext() instanceof

               ServletContextAdapter)) {

                                    result =

        ((ServletContextAdapter)this.getContext()).getServletContext();

               }

               return result;

   }

…

   private Component component;



   private void setComponent(Component c){

     this.component = c;

   }

…

            if(this.getServletContext() != null){


setComponent((Component)this.getServletContext().getAttribute("com.noelios.restlet.ext.servlet.ServerServlet.component"));

            }

…

}



Is there a better way of doing this?
If not could you make this in ServerServlet public:
 private static final String NAME_COMPONENT_ATTRIBUTE_DEFAULT =
"com.noelios.restlet.ext.servlet.ServerServlet.component";
