oki, hmm i'll try with this explanation instead:
Is this how the flow of the component setting and getting works?

1. ComponentInterceptor makes a get to the session, looking for the DAO
object (Object specified as enabled in the components.xml file.)We call it X
2. if X==null then make a new X in the session.
3. Action is called and makes a new set of X from a external source (ex
database) in its execute with setX(..) (is this automatically referred to
the session?)
4. Action goes to the view page and fill the FORM with X's data.
5. Form is submitted -> ComponentInterceptor make a get for X in session
(Are there existing two X objects now? one in the session and one in the
Action? ) and reset X's values with those existing in the FORM.
6. Action re-set also X with setX(..) and now X is reflecting the data from
the FORM and not from the Database.

It feels im loosing my self here...Hope you understand anyways... :)

Is there a example that i can see how you set session component in you
action?

Tx Daniel (co-worker) for your more pro-explanation :)

Well, the problem is as following.

The Component Interceptor looks up if an instance of a certain class is in
the session. As it doesn't find an instance it will create an instance of it
and put it to the session.

As the flow continues he finally arrives at his action class. In this action
he retrieves a instance of that class (which should lay in the session) from
the database with a Data Access Object and tries to put that very object to
the session by writing setPersistetObject() (which is the method in his
Aware interface).

But! Since the Component Interceptor already created this object it will not
put the instance created by the action back into the session (the objects of
course differ even though they are of the same type). It will ignore it and
when he returns to the result view he will actually retrieve the
ComponentInterceptor created instance of that type, which of course is empty
as the properties in the instance created by the ComponentInterceptor never
have been touched!

I guess what Mathias wants to know if there is a way to persuate the
ComponentInterceptor to put the new instance of that type on the session and
dispose the untouched one?

I didn't understand all of that, but yes, your object will need to go
into the HttpSession if you want to reuse it...
