accessing init parameters of servlet in portal component of type servlet.

Hi,

I wanted to know how i can access properties mentioned in the portapp.xml file of a portal application in a portal component of type servlet.

The basic idea is that a servlet requires to have load on startup value true and also its init parameter needs to be defined and be accessible in the init method using servlet config object.

how do i achieve the same if the servlet is to be embedded as abstract portal component.type.

thanks.
