I'm not a purist myself, so it may break the MVC model somewhere, but (at lest in the apps I coded) I didn't find any use case that forced my to invalidate the session into a Logout action class.
In addition, I like to present messages like "Thank you <Your Name here>" and this information is usually in session scope, so invalidating the session in the action class would force me to transfer this information into request scope just for showing in the logout page. 2007/9/11, Ray Clough <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > The only thing "wrong" with it is that now you are putting application > control logic in a jsp page, which is 'OK' for small apps, and is probably > 'OK' in this particular instance if there are no complicating factors. > However, for purists, it IS putting control logic in a jsp page, which > purists do not view as 'OK' (speaking as a purist myself, while acknowledging > this as a possible character flaw.). > - Ray Clough > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "Gabriel Belingueres" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > To: "Struts Users Mailing List" <user@struts.apache.org> > > Subject: Re: How to invalidate a session in struts 2.0 > > Date: Tue, 11 Sep 2007 16:16:41 -0300 > > > > > > Personally, I use the good old > > > > <% session.invalidate(); %> > > > > as the last instruction of my logout.jsp page. > > > > AFAIK, to invalidate the session inside an action, you must downcast > > the session Map (from the SessionAware interface) to a SessionMap > > class, which seems little awkward to me. > > > > Besides, using session.invalidate() doesn't seems to me like an > > anti-pattern or something wrong. > > > > Gabriel > > > > 2007/9/11, illusion <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > > > > Hey, > > > > > > How to invalidate a Http Sesssion in struts 2.0?
