Accessing Servlet init Parameter by Expression language

[Arun chauhan]

there is no implicit object in expression language to access Servlet/Jsp init parameter.

though there is one initParam object, but it is a map of ServletContext initParameters.

how can I access Servlet/Jsp init parameter in expression language (ie. map of ServletConfig initParameters).

I think using pageContext implicit EL object:
But could not figure out how?

Nope. You cannot call methods using the EL. Please don't post answers that won't work -- verify them before you post.

There is no way. If you need this information in a JSP (personally, I never have), you'll need to fetch it in the servlet controller and set is as a scoped variable on behalf of the JSP. Or, you could write a custom tag or EL function.
