Creating Servlet Engine Lifecycle Listeners: IRAD WebSphere

Creating Lifecycle Listeners

This free, multimedia tutorial shows you how to use IBM's Rational Application Developer (IRAD) 6.0 to create a lifecycle listener that will respond to the creation of an HttpSession, or the initializing of a web application. In other words, the component created implements the HttpSessionListener and the ServletContextListener interfaces. How's that for excitement?

package com.examscam.web.listener;

import javax.servlet.ServletContextEvent;
import javax.servlet.ServletContextListener;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionEvent;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionListener;

public class MyKewlListener implements ServletContextListener, HttpSessionListener {


public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent contextEvent) {
contextEvent.getServletContext().setAttribute("timestamp", new java.util.Date());
System.out.println("Context Initialized");

}


public void contextDestroyed(ServletContextEvent arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}


public void sessionCreated(HttpSessionEvent sessionEvent) {
String magicKey = ""+ System.currentTimeMillis() % 100;
sessionEvent.getSession().setAttribute("magicKey", magicKey);
System.out.println("Session Initialized");
}

/* (non-Java-doc)
* @see javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionListener#sessionDestroyed(HttpSessionEvent arg0)
*/
public void sessionDestroyed(HttpSessionEvent arg0) {
System.out.println("Session Destroyed");
}

}
