<P>
HttpContext represents execution state of an HTTP process. It is a structure
that can be used to map an attribute name to an attribute value. Internally
HTTP context implementations are usually backed by a <A HREF="http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/HashMap.html" title="class or interface in java.util"><CODE>HashMap</CODE></A>.
<p>
The primary purpose of the HTTP context is to facilitate information sharing
among various logically related components. HTTP context can be used
to store a processing state for one message or several consecutive messages.
Multiple logically related messages can participate in a logical session
if the same context is reused between consecutive messages.
