Java session library

Thread view:

I would like to use Servlet kind of sessions outside of Servlet
container. Is there a library for that?

Basically what I need is HashMap with secure key generation and
automatical session invalidation after a given time. This would be a
snap to implement by myself, but especially because we are dealing with
security related code, a good and proven implementation would be better.

Take a look at java.util.UUID, jug and commons-id for competing
implementations of the UUID standard.

Try googling for the uuid mini faq.

Also, consider caching your id's as you'll proably want to persist
them.
