>From the Architect's view blog comments: "re: the J2EE session management. I think the point I was trying to make to *regular* CF users was, if you're not going to take advantage of J2EE session variables then there is no point confusing matters and turning them on. But clearly the availability of J2EE sessions in CFMX is a step forward in the right direction :) Posted by Geoff Bowers at June 17, 2003 09:33 PM Well, one of the main benefits of J2EE sessions is that they use an in-memory cookie (jsessionid) as opposed persistent cookies (cfid & cftoken). J2EE sessions end when you close your browser, the in-memory cookie is less likely to be refused by a browser and you only have to deal with one cookie, not two. Posted by seancorfield at June 17, 2003 09:44 PM Of course many old CF hacks would say its easy enough to convert CFID/CFTOKEN cookies into session cookies -- though I think we've all but given up asking for this to be an attribute of CFAPPLICATION :) If you wanted to mail me a list of your least hated, favourite reasons for using J2EE sessions in CFMX it would be my pleasure to update the Breeze presentation appropriately ;) Posted by Geoff Bowers at June 18, 2003 01:35 AM " ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
