Hi, I'm using restlet with google app engine. I need to support session state. If a user logs in, I want to remember that they're still logged in when they switch between pages, so they don't have to keep re-authenticating.
I read through the posts here about sessions not being supported by restlet, which I don't full comprehend (I am new to this). I have a login servlet, and am doing something like this: HttpSession session = request.getSession(); if(ProvidedUserParametersAreOK){ session.setAttribute("user", "name"); then in my other servlets, I'd like to check if the user is still logged-in: HttpSession session = request.getSession(false); if (session.getAttribute("user") != null){ User user=(User)session.getAttribute("user"); //user logged in but we don't have access to the session in our ServerResource derived servlets. If a restful application is not supposed to support sessions, where would I keep this session state information then? Just wondering how to implement this really, Thanks ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=2590519
