Re: regarding setMaintainSession()
Hi Manohar,
setMaintainSession() can be used at client stub level to specify
if the client should keep track of session or not with the server.
Wen I say session here, I mean the cookie based session, and not SOAP
header based session.
> At what point do we need to call this API in the client code ?
Please have a look at samples/client/session/cookie/Client.cpp.
I hope this will answer all the questions you have on the use of this API.
You got to have a session sensitive service to test this. I have
used an increment service, where the server first sends 10, and
subsequenltly send 20, 30, 40 etc. for subsequest session sensitive
calls (i.e. calls made after setMaintainSession(true) being called on
stub.
Please have a look at readme.txt on how to test this with Axis Java.
BTW, I was under the impression that API doc that I had done was
sufficient. My understanding is that this additional infomation should
go in a seperate doc, may be user guide, which we do not have
currently. Thoughts on this?
Please let me know if you have any other concerns.
HTH.

Samisa...

When I was implementing this, I was under the impression that SOAP
header based session would also use the same mechanism to
enable/disable the session.
I am not sure if Sanjaya used the same API as the session enabler.
In that case, this applies to both cookie and SOAP header based sessions.
However looking at the
samples\client\session\headers\sessionclient\CounterClient.cpp, it
looks to me that SOAP header based sessions do not use this. My
question is, how then do we enable/disable session in case of SOAP
header based sessions?
Sanjaya, could you please comment on this.
Thanks,
Samisa...

Hi Samisa,
I agree with you. We need some more details on usage of this API in the
documentation.When we say session here, we should explicitly mention that
this API is intended for cookie based session.
If an API has some dependency or prereqs for it's usage it need to be well
documented which gives fair idea to end users while using these APIs.
