remove particular data from session

[Joshua Cloch]

Hey guys,

My question is:

there are two or more javabeans in the session,let's take two as example:userBean and newsBean.Sometimes,I want to find the newsBean and remove it from session without influence on userBean,is there any good idea ?

Thanks very much!

The first place I'd look is the API document for the session class.

[Joshua Cloch]

yes, we can do it using embeded java scripts,like

<%... session.removeAttribute("beanName")... %>

However,is there similar things in pure jsp?

Thanks!

i have tried to use
:

${pageContext.session.removeAttribute('beanName')}

or

<c:set var="shishi" value="${pageContext.session.getAttribute('beanName')}" />

they never work.any ideas?

Yes. Make an effort and learn valid EL syntax. Neither of the code snippets you posted is valid. You cannot make instance method calls with the EL.

You can do what you want with the JSTL and EL, but not in the way that you are doing it.

You will find links to the JSP and JSTL Specifications in my signature.

Thanks very much,but it could be better if anyone could show some sample code...

[Praveen Babu]

<c:remove var="beanName" scope="session" />

This will remove the attribute named beanName from the session scope

Also to use an attribute from session use this,

<c:set var="someVar" value="${beanName}" scope="session"/>

You can now print the variable someVar using c:out

Bye & Regards,
Praveen
