Retrieving the servlet context path from a Spring web application

If you use a ServletContainer >= 2.5 you can use the following code to get the ContextPath:

import javax.servlet.ServletContext;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component

@Component
public class SpringBean {

    @Autowired
    private ServletContext servletContext;

    @PostConstruct
    public void showIt() {
        System.out.println(servletContext.getContextPath());
    }
}
