Gyrex allows arbitrary URLs to applications. We need to investigate and define clear rules for overlapping applications. Example: app1 - http://localhost/myapp app2 - http://localhost/myapp/admin - Will they share sessions? The current thinking is not. They are different applications. However, we need to investigate session handling with overlapping applications. It may be necessary to use a application individual session cookies. - Should we support this at all? The above case is quite common. There is a regular app and an admin app. Implementing the admin area as a separate app has some advantages (eg. different sessions). - Which app wins over the URL? Should be the longest matching path, i.e. in the example above, app1 will have no luck with any servlet/resource registered under "/admin". We just need to ensure that the implementation does it this way and properly document it.
This works as documented. Jetty (i.e. the container) takes care of the Cookie vs. Session ID stuff.
