hi everyone!

i´ve added a phaselistener to recognize a timed out session and it works fine for non-ajax requests. it looks like this:

FacesContext facesCtx = event.getFacesContext();
ExternalContext extCtx = facesCtx.getExternalContext();
HttpSession session = (HttpSession) extCtx.getSession(false);
boolean newSession = (session == null) || (session.isNew());
boolean postback = !extCtx.getRequestParameterMap().isEmpty();
boolean timedout = postback && newSession;
if (timedout) {
Application app = facesCtx.getApplication();
ViewHandler viewHandler = app.getViewHandler();
UIViewRoot view = viewHandler.createView(facesCtx,url);
facesCtx.setViewRoot(view);
facesCtx.renderResponse();
try {
viewHandler.renderView(facesCtx, view);
facesCtx.responseComplete();
} catch (Throwable t) {
throw new FacesException("Session timed out", t);
}
}


actually, this does not work for a4j requests, as only parts of the application are rerendered. what can i do? it seems that the dead session is recognized by the phase-listener on an ajax-request as well, but as the client only rerenders part of the page nothing happens. it is not visible for the user, he is not redirected to the session-timeout-page. so what can i do?

thank you in advance,
