For simple request-response protocols like HTTP sesssionIdle will work
just fine. In protocols like these the client sends a single request and
then waits for a response to that request. When the protocol allows
several requests to be sent at once things will get trickier.

sessionIdle cannot detect a missing response to a specific message,
that capability is always protocol specific. It can, however, detect
idle TCP connections where no messages being sent, received, or both.

You can't use sessionIdle event simply here. You'll have to use
java.util.Timer and java.util.TimerTask (or OpenSymphony
Quartz<http://www.opensymphony.com/quartz/>as an alternative).
Schedule a timeout task to be executed on timeout
situation for each request message, and cancel it when you receive the
corresponding response message.

Then when is sessionIdle being used?
Thanks for comments
