Well I'm talking about web applications that one has to log into
(userid/password), or otherwise identify oneself to. What we're interested
in then is maintaining objects for the duration of the login to the web
application. Perhaps the user uses a number of JSP systems, then we want to
ensure the web application objects do not conflict with another's web
application objects. Thus the idea of an application space.
I like to work with multiple browser windows open at one time. I assume I'm
not alone in that. We're developing web apps for people that might use more
than one of them concurrently, in different browser windows. In doing so
they've established one HttpSession object (as long as they are only using
one browser type - i.e. all Netscape for instance). Should one web app
invalidate the session object it would destroy all the objects tied to it,
and since we've tied our web application Hashtables to it, it would destroy
all of those too. Thus we remove the web app Hashtables from the session,
rather than invalidating it, letting the session timeout or end when all the
browser windows are closed.
Does that help?
