Hi everyone!

I'd like to know how is it possible from a detected user (in)activity automatically trigger a IClientSession#stopSession for example?

I currently experience great difficulties to combine:

UserActivityManager, UserActivityListener, UserActivityEvent, from the client-side

then

IUserActivityProvider, IUserActivityStateService, UserActivityClientNotification, UserStatusMap, from the server-side.

Thanks!

(semi-)SOLVED (I suppose!)

Since the Servlet/RAP APIs provide session autoclose way and the documentation from AbstractRwtEnvironment

states for AbstractRwtEnvironment#initClientSession(UserAgent)

Quote:

As default, the IClientSession is attached to the http session. This means, the client session lives as long the http session lives. If the http session expires, the client session will be stopped.

This method creates and loads a new client session if there is no client session attached to the http session yet. If there already is one attached, the attached session will be returned.



I simply choosed to override AbstractRwtEnvironment#initClientSession(UserAgent) this way:

@Override
protected IClientSession initClientSession(final UserAgent userAgent) {

	final IClientSession clientSession = super.initClientSession(userAgent);
	// timeout is set to 60 seconds.
	RWT.getSessionStore().getHttpSession().setMaxInactiveInterval(60);
	return clientSession;
}


And all worked fine!

But I don't particulary approve this solution (my own Smile ) because the API states "AS DEFAULT", witch means that, I think, if the tigh conceptual coupling between the Scout IClientSession and the HTTP Session, is lost in a near future, this workouround will also probably be inefficient!


A solution combining, the own Scout's arifacts would be the best, but meanwhile ... this one works Wink !

Hi Boy

Specifying a session timeout is the right way. If you package your app as war and deploy it on a servlet container (e.g. tomcat), you can set the timeout in the web.xml. I don't know how to do it with jetty, but setting it programmatically with setMaxInactiveInterval is definitely a possibility too.

The UserActivity stuff is not implemented for the rap ui, at least as far as I know.

Regards
Claudio
