It seems to me that “session” scope is another means to keep objects in session as
using setAttrubute / getAttribute
Correct?
You know, dont know why, it does not work for me.
<bean id=”sabreUser” class=”util.MyUser” factory-method=”getSomeUser” scope=”session”>
<const args…>
What I see is that after the initialization and initial deploy the MyUser properties are correct.
Then, in the first session I change MyUser property, the session is closed.
The second session runs and it sees the last set value from the previous session!
What does that mean?
I expect this object to be initialized whenever a new session starts. But it better looks as singleton, though you see – “session” attribute is set.
I can see the cause of the problem in that a Servlet’s fields is initialized with @Autowired
so, once it is initialized, every other session will see its fields set and does not “ReWire” this properties. It happens once? How to overcome this problem?
The Spring session does not exactly match the HttpSession, and even the Spring documentation on the @SessionAttributes annotation says that it might be stored in the session or “some conversational storage”. I got that from The Spring docs for 2.5
I’ve basically quit trying to make sense of it, and just got on with my life, if I want something stored in the HttpSession, I just have Spring inject the HttpSession to me, assuming you’re using Spring MVC its pretty easy, instructions on the same page.
