ServletContext interface is a window for a servlet to view its
environment. A servlet can use this interface to get information such
as initialization parameters for the web application.
The context is initialized at the time of the web application is loaded
Servlet Config
To retrieve initial parameters, we need the ServletConfig object passed
by the servlet container to the servlet.
I hope i have'nt confused you with my language.
