Thank you very much for you help.
Yes, this is what I wanted to do. Indeed I tried to set the attribute to
the FacesContext because I did not know that the servlet context will
lead to the application context.
Nevertheless it is working now. Thank you again.

Do you mean that you want code running within a request to be able to
call
FacesContext
.getCurrentInstance()
.getExternalContext()
.getApplicationMap()
.get("someKey")
and get some object that you set up at webapp startup time?
If so, then that's fairly simple. The getApplicationMap() call above
just returns all objects that are in the standard servlet application
scope, ie the values of
javax.servlet.ServletContext.getAttribute()
So just write a ServletContextListener, and call
ServletContext.setAttribute to store your special object. It is then
later accessable to jsf as an "application scope" value. Yes, the
FacesContext doesn't yet exist, but that doesn't matter.
If you really do need access to the FacesContext for some reason then
things do get trickier. Matthias' info below is one option; there are a
couple of others solutions too.

Even a servlet req listener is to early. Take a look at our
MyFacesServlet how to decorate the FacesServlet.

Hello,
is there a Listener available which tells me when the FacesServlet
is started? I want to put something in the application object map
but if I use the javax.servlet.ServletContextListener it is to early
and the the FacesContext seems not to be created by now.
Thanks,
Markus
