Re: How to catch the Session Time Out event ??
this type of processing is better placed in the controller. i would suggest
either subclassing ActionServlet or providing a generic base class for each of
your Action classes which performs a check similar to:
HttpSession session = request.getSession();
if(session == null) {
mapping.findForward(welcome);
}
this way the logic is in one place and always checked on each request.

Hi all,
I am using Struts for an Intranet application (Linux,Sybase,Java) and it is
working very well.
The last thing I would like to do is forwarding automatically the current
client to the welcome page when his session is timeout, through a call to a
particular ActionForward of struts-config.xml
I built a JSP page (index.jsp) who calls the correct forward :
%@ page language=java %
%@ taglib uri=/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld prefix=logic %
logic:forward name=welcome/
I have the correct struts-config.xml structure (when i call the jsp directly
i actually go to the welcome page who is a template).
-
global-forwards
forward name=welcome path=/jsp/t-welcome.jsp/
/global-forwards
-
But I have one last problem :
I would like to know how to catch the session time out event, in order to
call the index.jsp page.
As anybody an idea about this ???

RE: How to catch the Session Time Out event ??
In order to see if the client has a valid session, you will need to save some data in the session, and in the beginning of each page check for this data, for example the session key, or the user name. If the check returns null then there is no session, and the user has to start over. We usually do a custom tag checksession which we call in our template.jsp, used by struts. This way you won't have to copy/paste in all pages Ganeff -Original Message- From: Xavier Brunel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 3:29 PM To: 'Struts-User Subject: How to catch the Session Time Out event ??

Re: How to catch the Session Time Out event ??
I have an idea. Run a thread which continously checks currentTime - session.getLastAccessedTime(). If that is greatetr than 15 minutes this thread forwards to the index page.
