Method Detail

getId

Object getId()

Gets the session identifier.

Returns:

session id

getLifeCycleName

String getLifeCycleName()

Gets the name of the life-cycle object.

Returns:

the name of the life-cycle object

getApplicationName

String getApplicationName()

Gets the associated application name of the session.

Returns:

service name

getUserName

String getUserName()

Gets the sessions user name.

Returns:

the user name

getPassword

String getPassword()

Gets the sessions password.

Returns:

the password

getProperty

Object getProperty(String pName)

Gets the value of a property.

Parameters:

pName - the property name

Returns:

the value of the property or null if the property is not available

getProperties

Hashtable<String,Object> getProperties()

Gets all properties.

Returns:

a Hashtable with property names and values

setProperty

void setProperty(String pName,
                 Object pValue)

Sets the value of a property.

Parameters:

pName - the property name

pValue - the value for the property or null to delete the property

getStartTime

long getStartTime()

Gets the session start/create time.

Returns:

start time in millis

getLastAccessTime

long getLastAccessTime()

Gets the time of the last session access.

Returns:

access time in millis

setMaxInactiveInterval

void setMaxInactiveInterval(int pMaxInactiveInterval)

Specifies the time, in minutes, between access before the session will be inactive. A zero or negative time indicates the session should never be inactive.

Parameters:

pMaxInactiveInterval - time in minutes

getMaxInactiveInterval

int getMaxInactiveInterval()

Returns the maximum time interval, in minutes, that this session will be active. After this interval, the session is inactive. The maximum time interval can be set with the setMaxInactiveInterval method. A zero or negative time indicates the session should never be inactive.

Returns:

time in minutes

See Also:

setMaxInactiveInterval(int)

isInactive

boolean isInactive(long pAccessTime)

Checks if the session is inactive.

Parameters:

pAccessTime - current access time

Returns:

true if the session is inactive

See Also:

getMaxInactiveInterval(), getLastAccessTime()

getLastAliveTime

long getLastAliveTime()

Gets the time of the last communication of the session.

Returns:

the last communication/alive time

setAliveInterval

void setAliveInterval(long pAliveInterval)

Sets the desired client-side communication interval for this session.

Parameters:

pAliveInterval - the alive interval (client-side)

getAliveInterval

long getAliveInterval()

Gets the desired client-side communication interval for this session.

Returns:

the alive interval (client-side)

isAlive

boolean isAlive(long pAccessTime)

Checks if the session is alive. That means the client sends alive messages. The session is not alive if the client doesn't send alive messages.

Parameters:

pAccessTime - current access time

Returns:

true if the session is alive
