/**
 * <p>
 * PageContext extends JspContext to provide useful context information for when JSP technology is used in a Servlet
 * environment.
 * <p>
 * A PageContext instance provides access to all the namespaces associated with a JSP page, provides access to several
 * page attributes, as well as a layer above the implementation details. Implicit objects are added to the pageContext
 * automatically.
 * <p>
 * The <code> PageContext </code> class is an abstract class, designed to be extended to provide implementation
 * dependent implementations thereof, by conformant JSP engine runtime environments. A PageContext instance is obtained
 * by a JSP implementation class by calling the JspFactory.getPageContext() method, and is released by calling
 * JspFactory.releasePageContext().
 * <p>
 * An example of how PageContext, JspFactory, and other classes can be used within a JSP Page Implementation object is
 * given elsewhere.
 * <p>
 * The PageContext provides a number of facilities to the page/component author and page implementor, including:
 * <ul>
 * <li>a single API to manage the various scoped namespaces
 * <li>a number of convenience API's to access various public objects
 * <li>a mechanism to obtain the JspWriter for output
 * <li>a mechanism to manage session usage by the page
 * <li>a mechanism to expose page directive attributes to the scripting environment
 * <li>mechanisms to forward or include the current request to other active components in the application
 * <li>a mechanism to handle errorpage exception processing
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * <B>Methods Intended for Container Generated Code</B>
 * <p>
 * Some methods are intended to be used by the code generated by the container, not by code written by JSP page authors,
 * or JSP tag library authors.
 * <p>
 * The methods supporting <B>lifecycle</B> are <code>initialize()</code> and <code>release()</code>
 * <p>
 * The following methods enable the <B>management of nested</B> JspWriter streams to implement Tag Extensions:
 * <code>pushBody()</code>
 * <p>
 * <B>Methods Intended for JSP authors</B>
 * <p>
 * The following methods provide <B>convenient access</B> to implicit objects: <code>getException()</code>,
 * <code>getPage()</code> <code>getRequest()</code>, <code>getResponse()</code>, <code>getSession()</code>,
 * <code>getServletConfig()</code> and <code>getServletContext()</code>.
 * <p>
 * The following methods provide support for <B>forwarding, inclusion and error handling</B>: <code>forward()</code>,
 * <code>include()</code>, and <code>handlePageException()</code>.
