Hi,

That's an interesting idea. I don't think a method in SSLSession would be the right place for such a method, maybe SSLContext given it's a server side operation affecting many sessions. If we do enhance the API for stateless operations, that would be a reasonable addition.

Thanks for the input

Tony

Hello,

The change seems reasonable, but should there maybe a method to refresh temporary keys used for those session tokens - I.e. "invalidate all" and link to that so specific implementations are encourages to offer such an API.

Gruss

The specifications for TLS 1.3 (RFC 8446) and Stateless Resumption for
TLS 1.2 (RFC 5077) does not define session invalidation. Additionally,
RFC 5077 provides research that it is unnecessary. This change is to
clarify that session invalidation method in the Java API, in
javax.net.ssl.SSLSession.invalidate(), may not be supported in some
circumstances.

The CSR is: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8243678
