[Php-java-bridge-users] persisting java objects in $_SESSION

[Bryan L. <bl...@th...>]

I want to be able to store an object in $_SESSION so that I can retrive 
the object with subsequent php pages.  I think the issue I'm having is 
due to an out of scope condition when the php page exits.  I see the 
Cache reference in the docs and tests.php4/Cache.java in the 
distribution but I'm little fuzzy on what to actually do.

Here is a code snippet followed by the exception that is raised when my 
php page exits:

...
    // OrderServiceUtil() handles the context lookup, remote object 
narrowing and home.create calls
    $orderServiceUtil = new OrderServiceUtil();

    // get an instance of the home interface of the session bean
    $order = $orderServiceUtil->getInstance();

    // get product id 1041 
                                                                                                               

    $product = $order->getProduct(1041);
                                                                       
    $_SESSION['product'] = $product;
   
...

Just looking over the java bridge code it appears it is performing a 
wait() which probably call a system specific sleep().  What I can't 
figure out is which class the invocation is attempted.  wait() and 
sleep() should be in rt.jar.

Any thoughts?
