I would like to suggest a modification to the default value for "sessiontimeout" for the "deploymentdescriptor" subtask. Currently if you do not specify a value for this it defaults to 0. The XDoclet documentation for "sessiontimeout" erroneously assumes that 0 means to never timeout. If you are using WebLogic this is bad since 0 means that the session should not be maintained at all. It does NOT mean that sessions never timeout (setting session-timeout to -1 will do that).
My recommendation is that this value is not even added unless explicitly defined in the "deploymentdescriptor" subtask.
Supporting docs are at:
http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs60/programming/web_xml.html#web_xml_session-config
I just wanted to save someone the pain we experienced in tracking down this problem.
Thanks,
John
