    You can use the HttpServletRequest object.

    final String oldPassword = reguest.getParameter("oldpassword");

    And then just compare these using the equals method.

    // Json

    String oldpw = request.getParameter("oldpw");
                String newpw;
     
                // Did the user enter same value?
                oldpw = request.getParameter("oldpw");
                // If not, use the drop-down list value
                if ( (oldpw != newpw)  ) {
               // retrieve the "newpw" attribute from the session-scope
                HttpSession session = request.getSession();
               Anymodel model = (PwordChange)session.getAttribute("newpw");
                newpwitem item = model.newpw(oldpw, newpw);
     
                // Store the item on the request-scope
                request.setAttribute("newpwitem ", item);
                return mapping.findForward("success");
                }
