SSLSessionContext represents a set of
SSLSessions associated with a single entity. For example,
it could be associated with a server or client who participates in many
sessions concurrently.
Not all environments will contain session contexts. For example, stateless session resumption.
Session contexts may not contain all sessions. For example, stateless sessions are not stored in the session context.
There are SSLSessionContext parameters that affect how
sessions are stored:
- Sessions can be set to expire after a specified time limit.
- The number of sessions that can be stored in context can be limited.
SSLSessionContext can be listed.- Since:
- 1.4

Method Details
-
getSession
Returns theSSLSessionbound to the specified session id.- Parameters:
sessionId- the Session identifier- Returns:
- the
SSLSessionor null if the specified session id does not refer to a valid SSLSession. - Throws:
NullPointerException- ifsessionIdis null.
-
getIds
Enumeration<byte[]> getIds()Returns an Enumeration of all known session id's grouped under thisSSLSessionContext.Session contexts may not contain all sessions. For example, stateless sessions are not stored in the session context.
- Returns:
- an enumeration of all the Session id's
-
setSessionTimeout
void setSessionTimeout(int seconds) Sets the timeout limit forSSLSessionobjects grouped under thisSSLSessionContext.If the timeout limit is set to 't' seconds, a session exceeds the timeout limit 't' seconds after its creation time. When the timeout limit is exceeded for a session, the
SSLSessionobject is invalidated and future connections cannot resume or rejoin the session. A check for sessions exceeding the timeout is made immediately whenever the timeout limit is changed for thisSSLSessionContext.- API Note:
- Note that the JDK Implementation uses default values for both
the session cache size and timeout. See
getSessionCacheSizeandgetSessionTimeoutfor more information. Applications should consider their performance requirements and override the defaults if necessary. - Parameters:
seconds- the new session timeout limit in seconds; zero means there is no limit.- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException- if the timeout specified is< 0.- See Also:
-
getSessionTimeout
int getSessionTimeout()Returns the timeout limit ofSSLSessionobjects grouped under thisSSLSessionContext.If the timeout limit is set to 't' seconds, a session exceeds the timeout limit 't' seconds after its creation time. When the timeout limit is exceeded for a session, the
SSLSessionobject is invalidated and future connections cannot resume or rejoin the session. A check for sessions exceeding the timeout limit is made immediately whenever the timeout limit is changed for thisSSLSessionContext.- Implementation Note:
- The JDK implementation returns the session timeout as set by
the
setSessionTimeoutmethod, or if not set, a default value of 86400 seconds (24 hours). - Returns:
- the session timeout limit in seconds; zero means there is no limit.
- See Also:
-
setSessionCacheSize
void setSessionCacheSize(int size) Sets the size of the cache used for storingSSLSessionobjects grouped under thisSSLSessionContext.- API Note:
- Note that the JDK Implementation uses default values for both
the session cache size and timeout. See
getSessionCacheSizeandgetSessionTimeoutfor more information. Applications should consider their performance requirements and override the defaults if necessary. - Parameters:
size- the new session cache size limit; zero means there is no limit.- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException- if the specified size is< 0.- See Also:
-
getSessionCacheSize
int getSessionCacheSize()Returns the size of the cache used for storingSSLSessionobjects grouped under thisSSLSessionContext.- Implementation Note:
- The JDK implementation returns the cache size as set by
the
setSessionCacheSizemethod, or if not set, the value of thejavax.net.ssl.sessionCacheSizesystem property. If neither is set, it returns a default value of 20480. - Returns:
- size of the session cache; zero means there is no size limit.
