Wow. What were you using, Apache JServ? Tomcat 3.x?
I don't see from the API javadocs when HttpSessionBindingListener was
introduced (it just says "$Version$" in 2.5 and nothing at all in
3.0), but that should have been around for a long time.

I was there for the 2.2->2.3 switch as well. I remember being handed a
"server runbook" that included Apache JServ, and configuring
everything was a tedious nightmare. I understand why some people post
to the list saying "my configuration doesn't work" and you find
they're using a TC 4.x server.xml file with TC 7.x: that's what the
runbook says, so they do it.
I distinctly remember personally upgrading our own "standard library"
code to move from the whole getValue/setValue to
getAttribute/setAttribute. My employer, for whatever reason, had also
implemented their own session management strategy and wired it into
their own "app framework" (I use that term *very* loosely). I
re-factored it to use standard HttpSessions under the hood and then
got to delete /lots/ of (IMO) completely useless code.

It was 3.x I believe. Yes, I am that old. Eh, you kids today with your
new fangled session listeners and what not. Back in the day we just let
the user's work vanish into thin air ...and they were GRATEFUL! :-)
