Method Detail

setContainer

public void setContainer(Container container)

Description copied from class: ValveBase

Set the Container with which this Valve is associated, if any.

Specified by:

setContainer in interface Contained

Overrides:

setContainer in class ValveBase

Parameters:

container - The new associated container

invoke

public void invoke(Request request,
                   Response response)
            throws java.io.IOException,

                                 long timeNow)

Indicate whether the session has been idle for longer than its expiration date as of the supplied time. FIXME: Probably belongs in the Session class.

Parameters:

session - The session to check

timeNow - The current time to check for

Returns:

true if the session is past its expiration

isRequestWithoutSession

protected boolean isRequestWithoutSession(java.lang.String uri)
