So far I understand Httpsession concepts in Java.
HttpSession ses = req.getSession(true);
will create a session object, according to the request.
setAttribute("String", object);
will, bind the 'String', and value with the Session object.
getAttribute("String");
will return an object associated with the string, specified.
What I am not able to understand is: I am creating a session object like
HttpSession ses = req.getSession(true);
and setting a name for it by calling setAttribute("String", object);.
Here, This code resides inside the server. For every person, when he tries to login the same code in the server will be executed. setAttribute("String", object); in this method the string value is a constant one. So, each session object created will be binded by the same string which I have provided. When I try to retrieve the string to validate his session or while logout action taken the getAttribute("String"); ll return the same constant string value(Am I right!!?? Actually I don't know, I'm just thinking of its logic of execution). Then, how can I be able to invalidate.
I saw this type of illustration in all of the tutorials on the WEB. Is it the actual way to set that attribute? Or, real application developers will give a variable in the "String" field to set it dynamically
(ie. session.setAttribut(userName, userName); //Setting the String Dynamically.. I dono is it right or not.)
And my final question is
WebContext ctx = WebContextFactory.get();
request = ctx.getHttpServletRequest();
What do the two lines above do? What will be stored in ctx & request?
HttpSession ses = req.getSession(true); will creates new session means. What value stored in ses.
