How can I access Spring Webflow FlowScope elements outside the flow?

Question

EDIT: I didn\'t get any bites on this question, so I\'m adding a little more detail.

I have a Spring Webflow app (ver 2.3.2). I need to access multiple FlowScope

You can get the scope beans from RequestContext - context holder for request-specific statecurrent web application context. Access to request context in your validator method is by:

    import org.springframework.webflow.execution.RequestContext;
    import org.springframework.webflow.execution.RequestContextHolder;

    RequestContext requestContext = RequestContextHolder.getRequestContext();
    requestContext.getFlowScope().get("objectYouAreLookingFor");
