Confusion regarding Session = False

[Poornima Sharma]

Hi Friends,

I have a confusion regarding Session=False.

In servlet when we use session=request.getSession(false); it does not create a new session, it returns the old session Object if it is present however

In JSP if we use session=false in page directive then we do not get the session object, hence how can we implement the above functionality.

Please guide.

Thanks

You can use an EL expression such as ${not(requestScope.session)} to check if the session exists or not. This may not be the exact expression that you need but you should play around with it to suit your needs.
