I know this has been discussed here recently, but I haven't really seen a satisfactory conclusion yet. Perhaps someone can clear this up for me. --- Our situation ---
We have a need to, upon session timeout, clean up a number of file system resources that may have been created by the application user. The (apparently) only available method to do this reliably is the HttpSessionListener. In order to accurately locate these file system resources, we need to retrieve a String value from a Session scoped ASO. I have seen the various methods to retrieve the Hivemind registry and the ApplicationStateManager, however, I have run into a problem. --- The Problem --- The ApplicationStateManager depends upon the SessionScopeManager for session scoped ASOs. The SessionScopeManager uses a WebSession object to retrieve ASO objects for return. The problem here is that the SessionScopeManager depends on a WebRequest being injected to retrieve the WebSession. During execution of the HttpSessionListener, no WebRequest is available, and as such the method call to the SessionScopeManager to retrieve a session scoped ASO throws a NullPointerException in getWebSession (at or about line 53). --- The Question --- Why does SessionScopeManager depend on the WebRequest to retrieve the session? What am I missing here, and what, if any, recourse to I have to retrieve a session scoped ASO from withi the HttpSessionListener?
