Accessing Java Session from Flex

[Jorge_Carlos-XG]

Hi, I have a JSP login page to access an intranet, inside the
Intranet I have a flex application, to access session info in the
JSP page from my flex application i've created a remote object to
get user info from the session:



<destination id="infoSesion">

<channels>

<channel ref="java-amf" />

</channels>

<adapter ref="java-object" />

<properties>

<source>pe.gob.inccusco.InfoSesion</source>

<scope>session</scope>

</properties>

</destination>



InfoSesion RO code:



package pe.gob.inccusco;



import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpSession;



import flex.messaging.FlexContext;



public class InfoSesion

{

public String getUserInfo()

{

HttpServletRequest req = FlexContext.getHttpRequest();

HttpSession sesion = req.getSession();



....Code to get the user Info using sesion





}

}



I want to access the JSP session info from flex but the
problem is that req.getSession always return a NullPointerException



what am i doing wrong?

HI,



I don't see any problem from your code. I just verified with
your code and it worked (version LCDS 2.5.1)

package pe.gob.inccusco;



import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpSession;



import flex.messaging.FlexContext;



public class InfoSesion

{

public String getUserInfo()

{

HttpServletRequest req = FlexContext.getHttpRequest();

HttpSession sesion = req.getSession();

return sesion.getId();

}

}



mxml page

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<Application xmlns="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">

<RemoteObject id="ro" destination="infoSesion">

<method name="getUserInfo" />

</RemoteObject>

<Button click="ro.getUserInfo()"/>

<TextInput text="{ro.getUserInfo.lastResult}"/>

</Application>

Are you using ColdFusion but trying to access Java based ROs?
If so, have

you configured ColdFusion to use J2EE sessions?
