You can use the HttpSessionListener interface. In case the session is
invalidated or canceled otherwise, the code to reinstate the db can be done
inside the method sessionDestroyed(). Remember you need to set your
conteiner to register the implementing class to receive the events.

Subject: Session listener


Dear All,

I'm fairly sure this has been mentioned previously, but I cannot find
any discussion in the archives.

The site I am developing has a standard shopping cart object implemented
within a session object. Whenever a user adds an item to his shopping
cart, it is temporarily removed from the main stock database to ensure
that when the user checks out, that item will be available to them.

However, for obvious reasons I need to keep a track on this session
object, so either when the user closes his browser or the session times
out, I need to reinstate the items back to the original database.

Therefore, is there any available resource to keep a track on a session
object, ideally a listener that will implement some given action at the
end of a session object?

Many thanks,
Peter Dolukhanov
