How to share session between multiple wars in same JBOSS AS 7 instance

[crazysoumya]

Hi

We are using Jboss AS 7 standalone.

I want to deploy multiple wars in the same Jboss instance.

One of the wars will be hosting a Login page that will let you Log In and create a User Session. Now when someone tries to navigate to http://mywebsite/AnotherModule/ the user session should be stil available to the AnotherModule app.

Basically we are trying to break the portal application into multiple deployable war units so that we can take one off and redeploy as we want.

I have looked at this

https://community.jboss.org/wiki/JBossWebSingleSignOn

But this seems to be dated and useful when Jboss used Tomcat internally.

I also looked at this

https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-2861

Similar stuff but not sure if this has been fixed.

Can some Jboss expert kindly help how we can achieve this?

No answers yet. Can a Jboss expert kindly confirm?

Kind Regards

I don't know if there is any AS construct for this but one option would be to have a @ApplicationScoped/@Singleton component to track the "session" and then pass along a token between cross-context requests(?)
