public class RequestModule
extends AbstractJXPathModule
implements ThreadSafe

RequestModule provides access to Request object properties. To get access to request properties use XPath syntax, e.g. to get the request context path use 'contextPath' as the attribute name.
More complex expressions are also supported, e.g.:

 'userPrincipal/name'
 

will return the name property of the Principal object returned by the request.getUserPrincipal() method. If requested object is not found then an exception will be thrown.
