Reading session variables from inside an Alfresco extension

I have a filter setup where I set a session variable like so:HttpSession session = httpServletRequest.getSession();session.setAttribute("myLastName", "some last name");‍‍How would I access this value inside of an extension that I write? I triedtring lastName = (String) RequestContextHolder.current

It appears adding the following code to my web.xml file allows the code in my previous post to work:

<listener>
     <description>Spring Framework Initilization</description>
    <listener-class>
        org.springframework.web.context.request.RequestContextListener
    </listener-class>
</listener>‍‍‍‍‍‍

I figured I'd post it in case anyone runs into the same issue.
