I digged that it should be helpful WebApplicationContext interface (it extends ApplicationContext interface).

To get this is static method getWebApplicationContext(ServletContext sc) of some util class: http://static.springsource.org/sprin...vletContext%29

parameter ServletContext is available from implementing ServletContextAware interface in bean class that use getWebApplicationContext(..)

edit: unfortunately servletContext in case ServletContextAware is equal null in constructor since I can't get Resource in bean constructor.

edit2: unfortunately WebApplicationContext is null after this in bean init-method: WebApplicationContext webappctx = WebApplicationContextUtils.getWebApplicationContex t(servletContext); although servletContext there is not null

You want to access the application context inside of a bean?

Isn't implementing ApplicationContextAware helps?
