It can be even easier. In my app I have a class that implements HttpSessionBindingListener. It gets stored in the session and I anchor all my session variable in it. When the session is terminated it gets called and it cleans up all the objects it knows about. You don't have to modify web.xml to do this.

Hi there,

I want to write a class which does some sort of cleanup when a users’s session ends (via logout or timeout).

As I understand it I can write a class which implements HTTPSessionListener and add it in Tomcat’s web.xml under <listeners> and this should work. (Correct me if I’m wrong).

This relies on the Servlet API and I have to change my Tomcat installation. However I liked it more if I could add that SessionListener to Cocoon’s web.xml since our project CVS only contains Cocoon, not Tomcat. Is it that easy to just implement the HTTPSessionListener Interface and add this Listener to cocoon/WEB-INF/web.xml?

Thanx,

Stefan
