[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JBAS-4436) session.getSession(true) does not create new sessionID after invalidation

[Remy Maucherat (JIRA)]

     [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4436?page=all ]

Remy Maucherat resolved JBAS-4436.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Rejected

Indeed, in the default AS behavior (you can change the value of emptySessionPath in server.xml), it should create a new session object, with the same session id, which is not forbidden.

>          Issue Type: Bug
>      Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) 
>          Components: Web (Tomcat) service
>    Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.0.3 SP1
>         Environment: JBoss 4.03SP1 running on java version 1.5.0_10, server is a standard SuSE 10 linux

> It is not possible to generate new session IDs as expected and stated in the servlet specification.
> A call of HttpSession.invalidate() unbounds all objects attached to the session but does not set the session to invalid.
> Sample Code:
>         
>   
> public class SessionTest extends HttpServlet {
>     protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest httpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse httpServletResponse) throws ServletException, IOException {
>         HttpSession curSession=httpServletRequest.getSession();
>         String prevSession = curSession.getId();
>         curSession.invalidate(); // Should invalidate session
>         curSession= httpServletRequest.getSession(true); // Should return new valid session, but returns old session instead
>         String newSession= curSession.getId();
>         boolean testCondition = prevSession.equals(newSession); // is true
>     }
> }
> EDIT: I am not sure if this affects versions higher than 4.03 as well
