Hi,
try to take this code in your baseclass (assuming the name ist MyServlet) of all
your servletclasses. The performRequest-method must be called directly from the
doPost ()-Method.
If you are using only one (Dispatcher-)Servlet, you have to work out the
Requests from the Login-Page and to react on a Login (via Database or in any
other way). The generated HTML-Page in this Code-Segment must have the tag
containing <from action = \"MyServlet\" method = \"Post\">.
If you are using on the other hand more Servlets derived from this baseclass,
especially one Servlet to every HTML-Page, the generated HTML-Page in this
Code-Segment must have the tag containing <from action = \"MyLoginServlet\"
method = \"Post\">. So you can handle the Login in an own Servlet. After
succesful login you should redirect your application to your first Page. In this
way, you give the user the Startup-Page, which is directly connected to your
LoginServlet. Any illegal try of a user, to call an Servlet directly via URL in
your browser will be automatically directed to your Login.
A nice thing is a Logout-Handler on (every) Page. All you have to do is to
generate a "LOGOUT"-Button in your HTML-Stream and if pressed, you destroy the
session via invalidate ()......
class MyServlet
{
......
protected void performRequest (final HttpServletRequest roRequest,
final HttpServletResponse roResponse)
PrintWriter oOutput = roResponse.getWriter (); // get a
HTML-Stream
HttpSession oSession = roRequest.getSession (false); // try to get an
exisiting session
if (oSession != null)
{
// OK, the user is being connected for the n-th time
// this method is yours !!! You get the request, the response, the
actual user-session and the html-stream, where you put in your generated
html-code
performTask (roRequest,
roResponse,
oOutput,
oSession);
}
else
{
// no session, no cookie, some reasons :
// - the user tries to connect the first time
// - the session have been invalidated by tomcat
// - you are using a clustered webserver and your first server have
been fallen down and your failover system takes control.
// so the session data on the first system is been lost. now you
have to login again (like a connection on the first time)
// you can't distinguish the reasons !!!
// get a fresh session, without any attribute-data
oSession = roRequest.getSession (true);
// write your Errormessage (like above) into the HTML-Stream and
create a Login-Screen
oOutput.println ("<html> .......... <form action = \"THIS_SERVLET\"
method = \"post\" > ..... " + YOUR_ERRORMESSAGE + YOUR_LOGIN_SCREEN + "</form> .....
</html>");
// now the generated HTML-Page will be sent back to your browser and
the user must login or leave !
}
}
