Any ideas?
Turbine uses the standard HttpSession interface from the servlet api, and these sessions are managed by your servlet container. You can get access to the session in your custom servlet by calling request.getSession() as per normal. You should then be able to get the User object from the session like this: User user = (User) session.getAttribute(User.SESSION_KEY); Regards, -- Rodney -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
