        Parameters:
        requestParameter - The name of the parameter to be retrieved from the parameters passed to the servlet by the HTTP GET/POST method
        sessionAttribute - the name of the parameter to be retrieved from the session variable in case the requestParameter is not found
        clearSession - If true, then the value found within the session variable specified by the sessionAttribute parameter is cleared and reset to the value specified by the defaultValue parameter. This will consequently also be the value returned then.
        requestRequired - If true, method throws an exception in case the parameter is not found among the ones passed to the servlet by the HTTP GET/POST method.
        sessionRequired - If true, method throws an exception in case the parameter is not found among the ones passed to the servlet by the HTTP GET/POST method or the ones stored in the session.
        defaultValue - If requestRequired or sessionRequired are false then the value returned by the method will take this value in case the parameter value is not found within the sought locations.
        requestFilter - filter used to validate the input against list of allowed inputs
        Returns:
        String containing the value of the parameter.
