I think Eain is saying that he has some operations that take a long time, and he wants to suspend the timeout counter during those operations.
So suppose the timeout in web.xml is 5 minutes. One particular operation takes 10 minutes to complete. Do not expire session. However, if the user is idle when there is NOT a long process running, expire after 5 minutes. Is that what you meant, Eain? -Justin -----Original Message----- From: Fogleson, Allen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 05, 2005 8:57 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: Session Idle That is exactly how the session timeout works. If the user is idle (i.e has not submitted a request in X time) then it is timed out (assuming X is the timeout) otherwise a request acts sort of as a "renew this session for X more minutes" Al -----Original Message----- From: Eain Mat [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 05, 2005 7:32 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Session Idle if i invalidate the session, everything will be destory in the session. I still want the session to keep alive when user is in the middle of their processing operation even the session-timeout is passed. I only want to timeout their session, if they are not doing anything.
