Session Created by XSP? [was RE: redirect]

[Ed Wolpert <wo...@radiancegroup.com>]

I just updated my system to try this... but I got behavior that I didn't
expect. Basically, if the user's session doesn't exist (timeout, not 
created,etc) I want to redirect. The XSP technique to redirect works, 
however, now it seems that the session is created after the redirection. 
Does this sound correct? (Is this a feature versus bug versus user error)

I just wrote this which works fine. make sure you don't have an old class
file in the repository path that is being accessed:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<?cocoon-process type="xsp"?>
<xsp:page language="java" xmlns:xsp="http://www.apache.org/1999/XSP/Core">
    <DOCUMENT>
        <xsp:logic>
            response.sendRedirect("http://www.yahoo.com");
        </xsp:logic>
    </DOCUMENT>
</xsp:page>

I was looking through the source code and unfortunately the xsp-java.xsl
file has the following it in it.   I don't understand why this is there
except so that maybe XSP's have access to the session object but why it
creates one for you I don't understand.
