JSP/Servlet : How do you get the time left in a session

[Steve]

Hey all;

How can you programmatically retrieve the time left in a JSP session?

Can it be programmatically reset?

Thanks in advance for any info

How can you programmatically retrieve the time left in a JSP session?

Can it be programmatically reset?

session.getLastAccessedTime() and session.getMaxInactiveInterval()
should give you the info you need.

When the JSP page is running it it has just started the countdown
over again and you can drop the session med session.invalidate(),
but I don't think you can choose some other value.
