[xwiki-users] Using session inside a class - xwiki-users@xwiki.org

19 Mar 2009

Hi,
I'm trying to access session from a Groovy class, but I'm not successful.

When I have a simple script:

<%
  session = request.getSession(true);

  counter = session.getValue("counter")
%>

- everything is OK.

But when I have a class:

class User {

def counter = 0;

  void setUser() {

    session = request.getSession(true);
    counter = session.getValue("counter")
  }

  String showCounter() {
    return this.counter;
  }
}

The Error message is No such property: request for class: User. 

So how should I access session from the class?

Thanks,
Zik
