Another option would be to extend PersistentManager to satisfy your requirements, as it provides much of what you want. IIRC the main "issue" for you was that swapOut/swapIn is done in the background thread right now. If you extend PersistentManager you could reuse JDBCStore (and friends) - this would also be a nice contribution to the tomcat community :-) Cheers, Martin > > > @ All : Also wanted to mentioned that the memcached-session-manager which > Martin has created is an awesome idea if you want to back up sessions to > memcache. > > >> >> Christopher Schultz-2 wrote: >> >>> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >>> Hash: SHA1 >>> >>> Mark, >>> >>> On 1/19/2011 2:27 PM, Reinwald Warapen wrote: >>> >>>> On 1/20/2011 12:47 AM, Mark Thomas wrote: >>>> >>>>> On 19/01/2011 19:17, Reinwald Warapen wrote: >>>>> >>>>>> I am writing a serializer/deserializer functionality (used in my >>>>>> custom >>>>>> session manager that extends ManagerBase).
