Question

I know that I can getAllSessions for user with current active session, and I know I can getAllPrincipals that will show all users with active sessions. But I want to know if it is possible to getAllSessions for a specific user. So say I am userA with current active session and I want to getAllPrincipals and then choose one of the principals and then getAllSessions for that specific principal. Is this possible? If so how?

Answer 1

You’re talking about SessionRegistry and in the API there is getAllSessions(Object principal, boolean includeExpiredSessions) method you can use. For example:

List<Object> allPrincipals = getAllPrincipals();
Object principal = allPrincipals.get(0); // change this to way you want
List<SessionInformation> principalSessions = getAllSessions(principal, false);

Just remember that principal object can be anything, like User or your own implementation, but it has to define equals() and hashCode properly.
