Re: [seam-dev] session invalidation problem

I was doing some session size research today in my application and I uncovered what appears to be a pretty nasty bug in Seam during the post-session invalidation routine. If you call #{session.invalidate} (which is also called by #{identity.logout} it leads to an *explosion* of sessions. (~50) To observe this behavior, install a servlet context listener that watches for session creation. Then run one of these two action listener methods. You can run Thread.dumpStack() in the listener to see that it is happening as a result of attribute reads on the ServerConversationContext. I guess because the session was invalidated, Seam attempts to recreate the session over and over as it works with the conversation within that request. -Dan -- Dan Allen Software consultant | Author of Seam in Action http://www.mojavelinux.com http://manning.com/dallen NOTE: While I make a strong effort to keep up with my email on a daily basis, life and work come first and, at times, keep me away from my mail for a while.
