      • remove

        void remove​(Engine engine,
            javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)
        Removes the wiki session associated with the user's HTTP request from the cache of wiki sessions, typically as part of a logout process.
        Parameters:
        engine - the wiki engine
        request - the users's HTTP request

      • find

        Session find​(Engine engine,
             javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)

        Returns the Session object associated with the current HTTP request. If not found, one is created. This method is guaranteed to always return a Session, although the authentication status is unpredictable until the user attempts to log in. If the servlet request parameter is null, a synthetic guest(Engine) is returned.

        When a session is created, this method attaches a WikiEventListener to the GroupManager, UserManager and AuthenticationManager, so that changes to users, groups, logins, etc. are detected automatically.

        Parameters:
        engine - the engine
        request - the servlet request object
        Returns:
        the existing (or newly created) session

      • guest

        Session guest​(Engine engine)
        Creates a new "guest" session containing a single user Principal org.apache.wiki.auth.WikiPrincipal#GUEST, plus the role principals Role#ALL and Role#ANONYMOUS. This method also adds the session as a listener for GroupManager, AuthenticationManager and UserManager events.
        Parameters:
        engine - the wiki engine
        Returns:
        the guest wiki session
