(I presume) web.xml?
2) as I'm using Spring Framework, is this still relevant (or is there a
spring-specific way of binding in a session

session is created, one when it is destroyed. That should do the trick
for you. That's not a Tomcat-specific solution either, so it should be
rather portable should you ever need to move to another app server.

Hi,
I have an app that uploads user files in a temporary folder. I want to
delete them when the session ends. I know I could solve this with a
cron-job, but I'm looking for a way to solve it with Tomcat.

Thx for your help in advance,
cheers,
Robert
