good question.
I am always amazed how difficult it is to get certain information from
a web app's servlet, even when in the servlet. I can't find any.
The closest thing I can see is adding listeners that get called when filters
and servlets are invoked.
Can I ask why you need to know this ?
Since you are the application developer, you set the value ;)
