Hi all

I came across this page for invalidating the session

http://struts.apache.org/2.0.11.2/docs/how-do-we-get-invalidate-the-sess
ion.html

It mentions this way of invalidating the session: 

if (session instanceof org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.SessionMap) {
                ....
        ((org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.SessionMap)
session).invalidate();
                ....

Just wondering if 
        a) this is still the recommended way of doing things (I have no
reason to think it's not btw)
        b) I'm writing a public facing site that needs to be secure, so
just wondering if there would ever be a possibility that the session
object might not be an instance of
org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.SessionMap, in which case there could be
potential for the session not to be invalidated when it's meant to be.
Is this a possibility? I don't know enough about Struts 2 to answer this
myself so would appreciate advice. 

Cheers

Richard
