When accessing an HTTPSession through a back door the session's last access time is not updated. Is there any way to "touch" that session to update that time or call a specific method to do so?
In other words I allow people to access their session through an xml request that may be called from a server (not the browser). Supplying the sessionID I can retrieve that session from a hashtable I keep, yet manipulating the session does not update the last accessed time, leaving it vulnerable to a timeout. Probably more of a servlet question than Tomcat, but hopefully somebody can help me. Thanks in advance, Frank
