L.S., I was wondering if it is possible to write a custom method of propagating the session ID between HTTP requests. Specifically: we want to store the session id in a X-ourcompanyname-sessionid header (we use a custom http client so we can modify that to send the sessionid back in a header).
The reason for this is that we have to deal with clients that are using mobile data connections, and mobile phone operators sometimes feel the need to mess with a clients cookies and sessions as well as doing other kinds of nasty things in their proxies. Non-standard headers are usually left alone. I've been looking at a way to do this but I can't find a solution, filters seem to be too late in the chain: a request object is already created and there is no way to even instantiate a session object from a self-supplied session-id let alone replace the current session object in the HttpRequest. Does anyone known if there is a way to write my own handlers for retrieving and setting the current sessionid and have tomcat use that instead of looking at the requesturl or cookies ?
