Access a manage bean through other bean/validator

Hello

I want to access a session managed bean from a Validator i created.

I did added that to my faces-config.xml :

<referenced-bean>

<referenced-bean-name>userDetails</referenced-bean-name>

<referenced-bean-class>com.ibm.manageBeans.UserDetails</referenced-bean-class>

</referenced-bean>

but how do i access the bean within the validator class ?

Thanks
