Robert Burrell Donkin commented on IMAP-71:
-------------------------------------------
The API should be revised so that MailboxSession is required for every method.
This will enable the backend to obtain the user context.
> Design: Consolidate Sessions
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: IMAP-71
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAP-71
> Project: JAMES Imap
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Mailbox, Protocol
> Affects Versions: 0.1
> Reporter: Robert Burrell Donkin
> Fix For: 0.1
>
>
> ATM two sessions are used - an ImapSession for the IMAP protocol layers, and
> a MailboxSession for the mailbox layers. This is probably a mistake. The API
> would be easier to extend if protocol and mailbox used the same session.
> Unfortunately, ImapSession is coupled to a number of quite IMAP specific
> classes. Improvements to the design in this area (eg. simplification of the
> inefficient notification system) would probably allows this to be refactored
> but for the moment, seems better to push methods up into MailboxSession, and
> MailboxSession up into the API. ImapSession could then extend MailboxSession.
