I think you're understanding (and I've accurately described) the problem...
I have servlets that are accessed outside of Lift and essentially I'd like
to have something like this work:
S.session.map(s => {
val my_lift_session = SessionMaster.getSession(s.uniqueId, Empty)
log("[S.inStatefulScope?] " + S.inStatefulScope_?) // true?
// do stuff with User.logUserIn, etc.
}))
Just to make sure I'm not missing something, I've got my web.xml LiftFilter
set to /* and bypassing the subpaths that I don't want Lift to catch with:
LiftRules.liftRequest.append {
case Req("myapp" :: "user_mgt" :: _, _, _) => true
case _ => false
}
and I am NOT setting *passNotFoundToChain *to true because that gives
me "Client
did
not send n bytes as expected" errors
So, not currently possible?
