Small questions: In Coldfusion there are Application and Session variables (and more). An Application is user-defined, generally applying to all directories under a given point (although a subdirectory could say it belonged to a separate application). Session variables exist for a browser session, apparently based on cookies (although encoding to url is also possible) or timeout after lack of activity.
How do these concepts map to Webware? Is there a way to store "Context-wide" variables? Or are application-wide variables more like Servlet-wide (cached) values? Can I group disparate Servlets into collections somehow (for instance, to share a single UserManager for user auth)? Is it true that Sessions do not timeout? Coldfusion also has Client variables, which are like session variables but last longer (2 days is default, we use them for a few shopping cart-like systems). These are also tracked by cookie. Thoughts? I guess part of my problem is that I can't seem to find how sessions are tracked in Webware. (cookie based? I remember running across it over Thanksgiving, but can't find it now.)
