I have just come back from holiday and, upon downloading the new 2.1 release, am
having the same problem with some of
my components.
For example, I have a very simple session generator that takes the session data and
throws it out as XML. The code
that does this is:
SessionContext context = (SessionContext)
s.getAttribute("org.apache.cocoon.webapps.authentication.SessionContext");
context.streamXML("/global/authentication", super.contentHandler,
super.lexicalHandler);
...
As you can see, this takes the 'SessionContext' object that is stored in the session
and uses the 'streamXML' method
to pass the data as XML to the next component in the pipeline.
Since the official 2.1 release the
'org.apache.cocoon.webapps.authentication.SessionContext' session object/attribute
has gone being replaced
with
'org.apache.cocoon.webapps.authentication.components.DefaultAuthenticationManager/UserStatus'.
This is a
different class and AFAICS is undocumented. ALL of my session components no longer
work.
Can anyone explain why this change was made and how to access the XML session data
from within Java code.
Many thanks,
Paul.
