Back in 2009 around at the same time i decided to start writing a blog on Oracle technology and on good response from Google queries i moved to write towards more on Oracle ADF and fusion middleware area.

Some highlights of my achievements in 2010. 

• I have learned a lot about Oracle ADF and Fusion middleware technologies.
• Got to know the SOA, BPM suites.
• I have written 82 blog posts in Year 2010 lets hope i would continue to write helpful topics.
• I presented 2 day APEX training sessions at Oracle university (Techno-ed) in Karachi, Pakistan.
• Formed PITUG User group to spread IT awareness in Pakistan.
• Made lot of friends all over the world.

With Year 2011 (In 2 months) I am migrating to USA and looking forward to work in the field of Oracle ADF and fusion middleware products.

How to set Session time out in ADF application

Hi,

Simple tip today but probably most of my friend coming from FORMS background are not familiar with this. Where and how to set the Session time out setting in Oracle ADF application? Answer is with every application there is a file called web.xml file in your ViewController Project WEB-INF folder. The file which contains configuration settings for your web application on run-time. JDeveloper provides a declarative way to modify this settings by default the session timeout is 35 minutes.

Here what documentation says

Session Timeout
(Optional) Enter an integer value of minutes of inactivity are required before you want to force your web application's sessions to expire. Corresponds to the tag of the subelement. Note, this value can be overridden for individual sessions by means of the setMaxInactiveInterval() method of the javax.servlet.http.HttpSession interface.

Here is the setting in Jdeveloper

after deployment you can see the timeout value in the deployment properties of your application as well here the screen shot of weblogic console

On runtime if session expires you will get the similar message

Happy Jdeveloping,
