Package org.apache.catalina.session

Class StandardSession

java.lang.Object
org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSession
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, HttpSession, Session
Direct Known Subclasses:
DeltaSession
public class StandardSession extends Object implements HttpSession, Session, Serializable
Standard implementation of the Session interface. This object is serializable, so that it can be stored in persistent storage or transferred to a different JVM for distributable session support.

IMPLEMENTATION NOTE: An instance of this class represents both the internal (Session) and application level (HttpSession) view of the session. However, because the class itself is not declared public, Java logic outside of the org.apache.catalina.session package cannot cast an HttpSession view of this instance back to a Session view.

IMPLEMENTATION NOTE: If you add fields to this class, you must make sure that you carry them over in the read/writeObject methods so that this class is properly serialized.

      Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.http.HttpSession
      Removes the object bound with the specified name from this session. If the session does not have an object bound with the specified name, this method does nothing.

      After this method executes, and if the object implements HttpSessionBindingListener, the container calls HttpSessionBindingListener.valueUnbound. The container then notifies any HttpSessionAttributeListeners in the web application.

      Specified by:
      removeAttribute in interface HttpSession
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the object to remove from this session

    • removeAttribute

      public void removeAttribute(String name, boolean notify)
      Remove the object bound with the specified name from this session. If the session does not have an object bound with this name, this method does nothing.

      After this method executes, and if the object implements HttpSessionBindingListener, the container calls valueUnbound() on the object.

      Parameters:
      name - Name of the object to remove from this session.
      notify - Should we notify interested listeners that this attribute is being removed?
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException - if this method is called on an invalidated session

    • removeValue

      @Deprecated public void removeValue(String name)
      Deprecated.
      Specified by:
      removeValue in interface HttpSession
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the object to remove from this session

    • setAttribute

      public void setAttribute(String name, Object value)
      Description copied from interface: javax.servlet.http.HttpSession
      Binds an object to this session, using the name specified. If an object of the same name is already bound to the session, the object is replaced.

      After this method executes, and if the new object implements HttpSessionBindingListener, the container calls HttpSessionBindingListener.valueBound. The container then notifies any HttpSessionAttributeListeners in the web application.

      If an object was already bound to this session of this name that implements HttpSessionBindingListener, its HttpSessionBindingListener.valueUnbound method is called.

      If the value passed in is null, this has the same effect as calling removeAttribute().

      Specified by:
      setAttribute in interface HttpSession
      Parameters:
      name - the name to which the object is bound; cannot be null
      value - the object to be bound

    • setAttribute

      public void setAttribute(String name, Object value, boolean notify)
      Bind an object to this session, using the specified name. If an object of the same name is already bound to this session, the object is replaced.

      After this method executes, and if the object implements HttpSessionBindingListener, the container calls valueBound() on the object.

      Parameters:
      name - Name to which the object is bound, cannot be null
      value - Object to be bound, cannot be null
      notify - whether to notify session listeners
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if an attempt is made to add a non-serializable object in an environment marked distributable.
      IllegalStateException - if this method is called on an invalidated session

    • isValidInternal

      protected boolean isValidInternal()
      Returns:
      the isValid flag for this session without any expiration check.

    • isAttributeDistributable

      public boolean isAttributeDistributable(String name, Object value)
      Does the session implementation support the distributing of the given attribute? If the Manager is marked as distributable, then this method must be used to check attributes before adding them to a session and an IllegalArgumentException thrown if the proposed attribute is not distributable.

      Note that the Manager implementation may further restrict which attributes are distributed but a Manager level restriction should not trigger an IllegalArgumentException in HttpSession.setAttribute(String, Object)

      This implementation simply checks the value for serializability. Sub-classes might use other distribution technology not based on serialization and can override this check.

      Specified by:
      isAttributeDistributable in interface Session
      Parameters:
      name - The attribute name
      value - The attribute value
      Returns:
      true if distribution is supported, otherwise false

    • doReadObject

      protected void doReadObject(ObjectInputStream stream) throws ClassNotFoundException, IOException
      Read a serialized version of this session object from the specified object input stream.

      IMPLEMENTATION NOTE: The reference to the owning Manager is not restored by this method, and must be set explicitly.

      Parameters:
      stream - The input stream to read from
      Throws:
      ClassNotFoundException - if an unknown class is specified
      IOException - if an input/output error occurs

    • doWriteObject

      protected void doWriteObject(ObjectOutputStream stream) throws IOException
      Write a serialized version of this session object to the specified object output stream.

      IMPLEMENTATION NOTE: The owning Manager will not be stored in the serialized representation of this Session. After calling readObject(), you must set the associated Manager explicitly.

      IMPLEMENTATION NOTE: Any attribute that is not Serializable will be unbound from the session, with appropriate actions if it implements HttpSessionBindingListener. If you do not want any such attributes, be sure the distributable property of the associated Manager is set to true.

      Parameters:
      stream - The output stream to write to
      Throws:
      IOException - if an input/output error occurs

    • exclude

      protected boolean exclude(String name, Object value)
      Should the given session attribute be excluded? This implementation checks: Note: This method deliberately does not check isAttributeDistributable(String, Object) which is kept separate to support the checks required in setAttribute(String, Object, boolean)
      Parameters:
      name - The attribute name
      value - The attribute value
      Returns:
      true if the attribute should be excluded from distribution, otherwise false

    • fireSessionEvent

      public void fireSessionEvent(String type, Object data)
      Notify all session event listeners that a particular event has occurred for this Session. The default implementation performs this notification synchronously using the calling thread.
      Parameters:
      type - Event type
      data - Event data

    • keys

      protected String[] keys()
      Returns:
      the names of all currently defined session attributes as an array of Strings. If there are no defined attributes, a zero-length array is returned.

    • removeAttributeInternal

      protected void removeAttributeInternal(String name, boolean notify)
      Remove the object bound with the specified name from this session. If the session does not have an object bound with this name, this method does nothing.

      After this method executes, and if the object implements HttpSessionBindingListener, the container calls valueUnbound() on the object.

      Parameters:
      name - Name of the object to remove from this session.
      notify - Should we notify interested listeners that this attribute is being removed?
