Yes the pagestore knows which files it makes, but it is not the controller of those files because the only thing that controls if the file must be deleted or not is the servlet container with the session objects.
and as far as i know there is no api where i can ask which sessions are still active. So the only thing we could do is have a thread running that is waking up every day once and checks if there are files older then X. And that thread must be configured by you explicitly setting the timeout that you want to have. johan On Nov 14, 2007 12:04 AM, Chris Lintz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I think from previous threads there was discussion about something that > you > could do.
