Hi Stuart,

Thanks for the clarification. As a follow-up, does undertow handle/expose servlets like conventional containers (tomcat, jetty, etc)? I ask, because injecting a HttpServletRequest via a context annotation in a resource method causes the following error:

org.jboss.resteasy.spi.LoggableFailure: Unable to find contextual data of type: javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest

Yes, although there are some other options:

- You can use io.undertow.servlet.api.DeploymentInfo#addServletExtension to create the extension yourself
- You can also use a ServletContainerInitializer or ServletContextListener instead of a ServletExtension
- In your embedding code you can call DeploymentManager.getDeployment().getServletContext()
