Hi everybody,
IS the following statement true?
when multiple instances of a same browser window are opened through
menubar
option File->New->Window ,all the screens(servlet generated html) will share
the same session
or thread created for doGet/doPost.so whatever written to session in one
window
will be reflected in another window as they use the same session .
Assuming that above statement is true we generally invalidate the session in
login servlet if already exists and create a new session.
your expert comments please..
Regards,
Ravi

Are you providing the same user id and password on all the sessions and are
you using session tracking ??

Hi everybody,
In this context, I want to share my experience with similar (but may not be
same) problem.
I have a simple html form submitting login name and password to a simple
servlet. The servlet validates the password and tells the user whether he is
logged in or not.
When I open 4 browser windows (all of IE 5.0 on same m/c) and submit the
parameters at the SAME time, three browser windows are blank (no response
info is displayed in them) and one browser window displays four messages
corresponding to all four attempts to login.
Can we related this behaviour related to what has been discussed here ? But,
we do not have any 'dynamically' changing variable defined out side the
doPost method!. All the servlet does is to respond to the client with
relevant info whether the user is logged-in or not !
Can some body please explain this behaviour ?

It is sometimes really frustating to debug the bugs introduced due to
multithreading. You had more than one thread executing through your sevlet
and that is what caused the problem.

I don't think this is correct. Member variables are used for storing
attributes of classes and the attributes of course can be dynamic in nature.
The problem that you faced was due to fact that multiple threads were
executing the same method and hence accessing the same variable
simultaneously and resulting in inconsistent results. The change to local
variable in the method resulted in each thread having its own copy of the
variable and hence the problems disappeared.
