share SessionID in different webapps - same tomcat

Is it possible to share sessionID between webapps in the same tomcat?
How can I find a demo or some JSP to simulate it?

Thanks a lot

that's not necessary.

When you configure the SingleSignOnValve within Tomcat, all webapps
(contexts) are sharing the same session-data.
However, this valve supports cookies only.

>From the docs:

The Single Sign On feature utilizes HTTP cookies to transmit a token
that associates each request with the saved user identity, so it can
only be utilized in client environments that support cookies.

Cookies (like you see in this site) is a good solution?

Thanks.

And how can I test this feature? Could you help to write a JSP sample?

Thanks
