That name should be different for dífferent containers...

This works for CauchoResin:
try {
URLConnection ucon = new URL("http://host/aServlet";).openConnection();
String line = ucon.getHeaderFields().get("Set-Cookie").toString();
int start = line.indexOf("JSESSIONID=")+"JSESSIONID=".length();
String sessID = line.substring(start, line.indexOf(";", ++start));
}
But I'd prefer
a) To use a full-blown HttpClient (see jakarta) which handles cookies for
you
b) To let my servlet "give" me the ID (e.g. by including it somewhere hidden
in the response's content, or in a special header field)
That way you're indepedent of the servlet container you use.
HTH!
