Re: [Zope] CoreSessionTracking timeout

[Chris McDonough]

Oliver,

 If timeout expires I expect
 'Before change:' to be empty again, thus generating a new token. But it
 isn't. It still uses the old token. What's going on?

Just for clarification:  core session tracking tokens don't expire.  Session
data objects associated with tokens expire.  See the section "Session Id
(Non-)Expiration" in the help doc.  Your question is still valid, however.

The timeout parameter isn't exact.  In the current implementation, for
example, if your timeout is set to 20 minutes, it could take up to 40
minutes to expire the data object associated with the token.  It will
expire, however.  I need to work on making this more exact, but for now
consider the timeout the "minimum" amount of time before a session data
object will expire.

HTH,

Chris

[Zope] CoreSessionTracking timeout

[Oliver Vecernik]

Hi,

I am playing around with this great product and (nearly) all works as
expected. This is exactly what I need for my application and you guys
are saving a lot of time for me! Thank you.

The only thing I don't understand is the timeout of
session_data_manager. If I test the example given in the help I expect
'Before change:' to be empty if called the first time (works) and filled
for each subsequent call (works also). If timeout expires I expect
'Before change:' to be empty again, thus generating a new token. But it
isn't. It still uses the old token. What's going on?

I tested with cookies and form vars namespace, but it has always the
same behaviour. What's the quirk?

Oliver
