Each SSL connection involves one session at a time, but 34 * that session may be used on many connections between those entities, 35 * simultaneously or sequentially. The session used on a connection may 36 * also be replaced by a different session. Sessions are created, or 37 * rejoined, as part of the SSL handshaking protocol. Sessions may be 38 * invalidated due to policies affecting security or resource usage, 39 * or by an application explicitly calling <code>invalidate</code>. 40 * Session management policies are typically used to tune performance. 41 * 42 * <P> In addition to the standard session attributes, SSL sessions expose 43 * these read-only attributes: <UL> 44 * 45 * <LI> <em>Peer Identity.</em> Sessions are between a particular 46 * client and a particular server. The identity of the peer may 47 * have been established as part of session setup. Peers are 48 * generally identified by X.509 certificate chains. 49 * 50 * <LI> <em>Cipher Suite Name.</em> Cipher suites describe the 51 * kind of cryptographic protection that's used by connections 52 * in a particular session. 53 * 54 * <LI> <em>Peer Host.</em> All connections in a session are 55 * between the same two hosts. The address of the host on the other 56 * side of the connection is available. 57 * 58 * </UL> 59 * 60 * <P> Sessions may be explicitly invalidated. Invalidation may also 61 * be done implicitly, when faced with certain kinds of errors. 62 * 63 * @since 1.4 64 * @author David Brownell 65 */ 66 public interface SSLSession { 67 68 /** 69 * Returns the identifier assigned to this Session. 70 * 71 * @return the Session identifier 72 */ 73 public byte[] getId(); 74 75 76 /** 77 * Returns the context in which this session is bound. 78 * <P> 79 * This context may be unavailable in some environments, 80 * in which case this method returns null. 81 * <P> 82 * If the context is available and there is a 83 * security manager installed, the caller may require 84 * permission to access it or a security exception may be thrown. 85 * In a Java environment, the security manager's 86 * <code>checkPermission</code> method is called with a 87 * <code>SSLPermission("getSSLSessionContext")</code> permission. 88 * 89 * @throws SecurityException if the calling thread does not have 90 * permission to get SSL session context. 91 * @return the session context used for this session, or null 92 * if the context is unavailable. 93 */ 94 public SSLSessionContext getSessionContext(); 95 96 97 /** 98 * Returns the time at which this Session representation was created, 99 * in milliseconds since midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC. 100 * 101 * @return the time this Session was created 102 */ 103 public long getCreationTime(); 104 105 106 /** 107 * Returns the last time this Session representation was accessed by the 108 * session level infrastructure, in milliseconds since 109 * midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC. 110 * <P> 111 * Access indicates a new connection being established using session data. 112 * Application level operations, such as getting or setting a value 113 * associated with the session, are not reflected in this access time. 114 * 115 * <P> This information is particularly useful in session management 116 * policies.
