I guess you are asking this to achieve SSO between your webapps running on the same Tomcat (Jetty etc).
I have been wondering about the same thing, and find the suggestions on this forum about using Terracotta or similar enterprise distributed caches to be quite an overkill for this situation. After my 5 min research into the issue, there does not immediately seem like you can share the shiro native session between apps on a single web container out of the box. But perhaps it is possible (and easier) to share such resources using Redis or Memcached,... etc? -- View this message in context: http://shiro-user.582556.n2.nabble.com/Shiro-and-multiple-wars-within-the-same-Servlet-Container-tp5560737p5563195.html Sent from the Shiro User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
