session active 1 hour !

[Lydia]

hi,
I have a problem with the sessions I have a list of session (hashtable)
which I would like to make inactive to the end 1h of inactivity.
However, a session is invalid at the end of a half hour if one
does not reach it. Doesn't the fact of writing in the session change the

value returned from the method getLastAccessedTime()...



which must I make?

Hello,

If you want to override the default session length (which I believe is usually
20 minutes), then you must set the MaxAge field for the cookie object. The
setMaxAge() method allows you to set how long a session (associated through
a cookie) will remain active. The setMaxAge() method takes a single integer
as an argument speciying the number of seconds the session should remain
active. The following code snippet would specify that the session should
remain active for one hour:

Cookie cookie = new Cookie( "OneHourCookie", "uid1234" );
cookie.setMaxAge( 3600 );
response.addCookie( cookie );

I hope this is helpful. If you have any more questions, feel free to post
another question.

Happy Coding!
