Access keepAlive bean from servlet

[rwong4000]

Is it possible to access a bean marked as keepAlive from a regular servlet and if so how is it done?
A javascript component on my page makes ajax calls to a servlet I created.

Hello,

It's possible only in the case when your servlet is invoked after VIEW_RESTORE phase of JSF lifecycle has been run. See org.ajax4jsf.application.AjaxStateManager#restoreAdditionalState(FacesContext, Object) for more information.
