Re: [enhydra] Question: Password save in Browser cookies?

Hi,

in EAF we are creating application (session) cookie (which stores
'JSESSIONID' value) with its default behavior (the cookie is not stored
persistently, and will be deleted when the user agent (web browser) exits).
Currently we don't have additional 'SessionManager' implementation that
would support cookie persistence (that would mean to keep session alive for
"long" period of time).

I think that this is something that should be done from application code!

We don't have sample implementation included in "Enhydra Demos" but it
should be rather ease to implement this!

For example:

When user chooses to 'save user login data' you can do something like this

e.g. redirect to same PO with "action" parameter set to 'setCookie' value
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------
...
if (action.equals("setCookie")) {
    Cookie cookie = new Cookie ("LoginAttributeName",loginAttribute);
    cookie.setMaxAge(1000000);
    comms.response.addCookie(cookie);
}
...
comms.response.writeDOM(yourHTMLresponse);
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------

and in 'Login' PO initialization (or before redirection to 'Login' PO) you
can do something like this to initialize user login attributes
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------
...
Cookie [] cookies = comms.request.getCookies();
for (int i=0; i<cookies.length; i++) {
        if ("LoginAttribute".equals(cookies[i].getName())) {
          loginAttribute = cookies[i].getValue();
        }
}
...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------

Hope this helps!
