I've implemented a similar authenticator (which I called 
AuthenticationInterceptor, since it's verifying the user has been 
authenticated).  The easiest way to handle this is to simply put some object in 
the HttpSession once the user is authenticated at login time, such as a User 
object.  If that object isn't in session, you can assume either they haven't 
yet logged on or the session has expired (which are both really the same 
scenario anyway).

Hi all,

I would like to write an Interceptor that will handle the session 

expiration.

If somone has already written something like that, thanks to tell me how.

If not here is my idea.



my interceptor will retrieve the session. A private method will tell me if 

the session is still valid.

here is an extract:



public String intercept(ActionInvocation invocation) throws Exception

        {

        Map session = invocation.getInvocationContext().getSession();

        if(isSessionExpired(session))

                {

                        return Constants.SESSION_EXPIRED_ACTION;

                } 

        else

                {

                        return invocation.invoke();

                }



        }



        private boolean isSessionExpired(Map session)

        {

        return true;

        }



When I put an object in the session (in the first action that is called 

for example),

is there a way to test if the session is still valid ?



any help is greetly appreciated.
