Re: Session State Object Creating Itself

[Mark W. Shead]

Never mind.  One onActivate was canceling out the other.  I should  
probably stop coding and go to bed. :)

There is a user session state object.  If someone tries to go to an  
authenticated page, userExists is checked.  If it is false then the  
browser is redirected to the login page.

It appears that the user session state object is being created on  
its own somehow which lets you access the page without logging in.   
The properties of this phantom user object are all set to  
"ApplicationStateManager". (For example user.username is set to  
ApplicationStateManager.)  Is this a bug or am I misunderstanding  
how things work?  It seems to work fine on other pages that don't  
deal with user management.

Am I somehow creating the session state object using some sort of  
convention I'm unaware of?

page");

                        loginPage.setNext(this.getClass());
