[Trinidad] Timeout handling ?

[Matthias Wessendorf <ma...@apache.org>]

Hi,

I filed TRINIDAD-943 ([1]) to support session timeout handling (at
least optional).
Why not introducing a new ctx param:

  <context-param>
    <param-name>org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.TIMEOUT_URL</param-name>
    <param-value>my_page_url</param-value>
  </context-param>

and incase of PPR AND!!! TIMEOUT_URL is set, send down something like this:
<?Tr-XHR-Response-Type ?>
<redirect>
TIMEOUT_URL
</redirect>
(TrPage._handlePprResponse() already handles <redirect>url</redirect>)

when no TIMEOUT_URL is set, I see two options:
-redirect to "/"
-<script>alert("timeout");</script> (yes, timeout is NOT hard-coded....)

For the non PPR

externalContext.redirect(TIMEOUT_URL);
(or "/")

Please note, (being a portlet ignorant :-)) I don't know if/how this
works in a portlet.
