Dain,

David is talking about how SessionManagers (effectively extended SessionFactories) should be plumbed into Geronimo (i.e. GBeans), not about the API's describing Sessions themselves.

I've looked at the stuff in modules/session - it looks very similar to some WADI internals - there is loads of overlap here. I have some serious plans for converging WADI with ActiveSpace and would be happy to consider further changes to reuse or contribute to your sessions module. We should talk.

I'll jot my ideas down and post them shortly.




How about just implementing the Session APi directly using WADI? :)



That's something that we could look at. I'd be interested to hear you plans for actually integrating the sessions with some container (web, ejb, etc...) as well - WADI is already doing this. Did you have a route in mind ?



My plans extend to EJB integration,


We already have one well under way...


Where?


and I think James is going integrate this into lingo and service mix, but I also think the API will work for servlet.


I'm going to look more closely at it today


Cool

I am quite interested in seeing a single API for session management (not all of clustering just session management)


I'm not clear here - you mean a single API for Session Clustering - yes ? This is also one of WADI's goals...


Please take a look at the API; its a simple API designed for end users wanting to integrate some implementation of session management into a container; it hides all the details of how a session management solution might actually work. Make sure you read the documentation in the javadoc; we've tried to document it and make it totally obvious how to use it.

As I've said several times recently, it should be pretty trivial to implement the session API using WADI. Also note that there can be many implementations of session management depending on requirements - e.g. just use a database.

I had a quick look at it last week - I will give it a closer look this week.
