Hi Gary,
Yes, WebApplicationContextProvider relies on Servlet 2.4 spec. If you
need a thread-bound DataContext in a 2.3 container, you can implement
similar logic (binding session DataContext to the request thread for
the request duration) using another servlet specification hook - a
custom Filter
(http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/
Filter.html). Read J2EE docs on how to set up a filter in web.xml. Note
that I haven't tried this myself, but I can't see why it wouldn't work.
