Here what I am trying to do is I have made some lists where I am fetching values and storing it in some particular lists and since I want to access those values in another method I am creating session variable and I am passing that values in session variable by setting key and accessing it in another method using get(key) which I am successful to do so.But now what I want is i want to make pdf in another method using values which are in lists. But I am unable to do so.Below is my code and please help me to pass values for making pdf.

This is wrong:
table.addCell( (PdfPCell) sessionMapGeneral.get("eventIdPdf"));
You have a SessionMap with String values as key and Object values as values:
private SessionMap<String, Object> sessionMapGeneral;
You add an entry with key "eventIdPdf":
sessionMapGeneral.put("eventIdPdf", eventIdList);
The eventIdList is an ArrayList:
List<String> eventIdList = new ArrayList<String>();
You can't cast an ArrayList to a PdfPCell which is what you're trying to do here:
table.addCell( (PdfPCell) sessionMapGeneral.get("eventIdPdf"));
You have to do something like:
PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell();
List<String> list = (List<String>) sessionMapGeneral.get("eventIdPdf");
for (String item : list) {
cell.addElement(new Paragraph(item));
}
table.addCell(cell);
