Hi all -
I've been playing with servlets for over a year or so now, and one of the
drawback's I've encountered is the ability for separate WAR's to communicate
w/ each other. For example, say I have two WAR's: one that handles logging
in (after a successful login, it puts user info in a HttpSession), and one
which handles a simple form submission. The URL's would be deployed
something like (in TOMCAT):
<webapps>/login
<webapps>/form
Now, is there any way for the 'form' app too access the user info from the
'login' context? I know they're in separate ServletContext's, but this
doesn't seem like an unreasonable functionality to ask for. Or, if there's
any workaround, or alternate method to achieve this type of functionality
I'd very much appreciate it if somebody would enlighten me.
The only option that I see, if I want multiple app's talking to each other
(like a calendar, message board, or news feed, for example) would be to
bundle them all in one WAR. Thus you can't deploy the individual app's
separately.
If I'm missing the bigger picture, somebody please enlighten me. :)
TIA,
Rich Yumul
