Does the PersistentManager help not to persist sessions across container start or restart ? or does it do across webapplication reload / restart ? (by container i mean Tomcat and by webapplication i mean a webapp that you run within Tomcat) From the documentation it seems that it helps not to persist the session across container restart or reload. If thats the case reloading my webapp only will not force the active sessions to that webapp to get destroyed or invalid.
Am i understanding this correctly ?
What I am trying to do:
I have a webapp called MyApp that runs in Tomcat. When i restart or reload this webapp - MyApp (not restart Tomcat ) ... i want to invalidate all sessions to this webapp - MyApp. It could very well happen that when i reload MyApp , there could be users using that application and have sessions to it. In my ServletContextListener for MyApp i do cleanup work and initialization work. At this point i want to invalidate all active user sessions too - i want to do this inorder to detect that and redirect them to the login page where they would get a new session and then i would allow them to go to where they were originally trying to go.
How do i achieve this ?
Thanks.

<Manager className="org.apache.catalina.session.PersistentManager"
debug="0"
saveOnRestart="false"
maxActiveSessions="-1"
minIdleSwap="-1"
maxIdleSwap="-1"
maxIdleBackup="-1">
<Store className="org.apache.catalina.session.FileStore"/>
</Manager>

Howdy,
You can simply tell tomcat not to persist your sessions. You don't have
to write any code. Read the PersistentManager documentation and
comments in server.xml.

I have got a ServletContextListener that does initialization and
cleanup for my webapp. I was wondering if there was a way to invalidate
all sessions to my webapp in this Listener ? If not, in what way can I
invalidate all sessions when i start / reload my webapp ?
Thanks
