Im guessing that this might require my storing the sessionId's in the
db when the users log on. Such a shame.
I think even doing that it wouldn't be possible to get the session
object itself... I seem to recall there being some security restrictions
around that (which makes sense if you think about it)... IIRC, that's
also the reason that getSession() method was removed in the first place.
If the information in session is all your actually interested in though,
and not the session object itself, you could certainly get away with
throwing a filter in front of your app that grabs session from the
request and pulls the pertinent info from it and shoves it in a
database, keyed by session ID (or whatever else makes sense). Obviously
a performance concern, not to mention the security implications, but
would certainly work.
I suppose you could try stuffing a reference to the session object
itself into some map, although I'm not at all sure that'd work... I'm
more sure though that it wouldn't be spec-compliant, and probably not a
good idea for other reasons besides :) Still, might be doable, you'd
have to test the theory.

Hi,
I don't believe there is a container-neutral way to do this, I think
any
solution would have to be dependent on what app server your running
on
and something specific to it.

I understand that there was a getSession(String sessionid) method,
in
HttpSessionContext which has since been deprecated.
Does anyone know how I would do this, with the Servlet 2.3 APIs?
