Peter --
All that you need to do is get your PageContext, then call getSession()
on that. Then you've got your session and can retrieve stuff from it.
Here's some pseudo-code to explain:
private PageContext pageContext;
public void setPageContext(PageContext pageContext) {
this.pageContext = pageContext;
}
public int doStartTag() throws JspException {
HttpSession session = pageContext.getSession();
Object objTarget = session.getAttribute(target);
return SKIP_BODY;
}
public void release() {
pageContext = null;
}
Hope that helps...
