Getting HttpSession object from SessionContext

[Ravissant Markandey]

Hi Everyone,

Can anyone tell me how i can get the HttpSession object from session context??

Also i dont even have the session id so context.getSession(sessionId) is ruled out.

Thanks,
Ravissant

If you're talking about the HttpSessionContext it's been deprecated so I wouldn't write code that uses it now.

Even if it weren't deprecated, there is no way to get a reference to a specific session object without having its ID.

Maybe if you tell us a little more about what it is that you're trying to accomplish, someone can suggest another approach.

I agree with ben's points.the specific session object has no ID.it is used to rewrite the URL and you can store the variable parameter in the session scope.

Sessions do have IDs.
In this case the OP (Original Poster) was asking about retrieving a reference to the session without knowing its ID.
