Interface Session

All Superinterfaces:

Evictable, java.io.Externalizable, Motable, java.io.Serializable

All Known Subinterfaces:

WADIHttpSession, WebSession

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractReplicableSession, AtomicallyReplicableSession, BasicWebSession, DistributableSession, StandardSession

public interface Session
extends Motable, java.io.Externalizable

A Session is an object with Time-To-Live (See Motable) and Locking semantics. In a distributable situation its content is Serializable. Different subtypes of Session may choose to implement their payload differently - i.e. a Stateful Session Bean (EJB) looks very different from an HttpSession (Web), but both could inherit or be wrapped by this interface.
