Sorry about posting code to the list if that is poor etiquette. I didn't
know of that one. What's the reason for it? My code wasn't too lengthy
and the email can easily be deleted by those that don't care. I just
thought some other newbies (not unlike myself) might find it useful or
thought provoking. Again, if this is against the rules of the list, I am
sorry.



Don't worry about it. It's not really, as far as I know anyway. Some
people are just cranky. Putting hte code where it can be searched by
folks is a good thing.



While I appreciate the points that Craig made (see other recent post) about posting copyrighted code and respecting bandwidth, I almost wrote a post jut to thank all of you for contributing to this thread, and I agree with Jim on this point. I read through all the code in this thread and saved it to look at it later. I will abide by the rules of the list (assuming I know and understand them of course), but if I have a vote, I like to compare code and am always looking for a "rounder wheel"! Maybe the Wiki is the best place, but I'm just not in the Wiki "habit". Perhaps I should give it a try. Maybe there should be a user (help) list for pure user issues (this list), a dev list for those developing Struts and related (the dev list), and a third (new) list for discussing development strategies related to Struts? Just thinking out loud. I think it is somewhat logical to think that the list of lists might grow as the product evolves . . .

Please respond to "Struts Users Mailing List"


To: Struts Users Mailing List <user@struts.apache.org>, Dakota Jack <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: Subject: Re: Session Strategy (here's a filter)

... it is a filter ... notice how it says "implements Filter".  The
mapping in web.xml is a dead giveaway too.

I'd love to know how it detects session timeouts though.  Far as I can
tell it will tell people who have yet to have a session created that
they've timed out.  ... first trip around the block they shouldn't see
that message.  The only way I can think of detecting timeout, as I
mentioned in an earlier post sometime back, is to put a marker of some
kind out (a session cookie) when a person logs in.  You could then
tell, by absence of a session and presence of the marker, that the
session timed out.

... I'd love to see a simpler approach (not that what I suggest is
complex).  I don't personally believe you can do it with fewer things
than I've mentioned here.

... and please *don't* post code!  It's very poor etiquette.  If
someone solicits something from you, send it to them and them alone -
not the list (unless explicitly asked to do so, and then limit what
you post to only relevant pieces of files).

I was interested, again, in a filter.

That's what this does, specifically the following section of code:
