Class SimpleSessionManagerFactory

java.lang.Object
  com.uwyn.rife.authentication.sessionmanagers.SimpleSessionManagerFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

SessionManagerFactory

public class SimpleSessionManagerFactory
extends Object
implements SessionManagerFactory

Simple caching session manager factory. This keeps a cache of session manager instances by name. This is used, for example, to create MemorySessions objects; it may be used for any session manager that doesn't require configuration information at startup time.

Element properties used:

"sessionmanager_class"

Name of the session manager class. If the class name is not fully qualified, the package name com.uwyn.rife.authentication.sessionmanagers will be assumed.

"sessionmanager_id"

Unique ID for this session manager instance. Optional. Use this if you need different elements to maintain separate session stores.

If you need logic other than a simple "new" for your session managers, implement SessionManagerFactory instead.
