[mapguide-users] Maintaining MapGuide Session during Restart

[Bruce Dechant]

Bruce,

You can keep move some of the session data to the library - ie: resources that you have created in the session.
What you are asking is for the session state information to be maintained - that information cannot be replicated in the library.

I'm not a web developer, but what about using cookies with your custom web application to reestablish the MapGuide session how it was last left. Perhaps someone with experience with this could chime in.

Thanks,
Bruce

Bruce D,

Are you suggesting that this can be done? Does anyone have a script or a
method of copying the session repository into a library object? Is there
even a way of creating a copy of the session as XML?

thanks,

Bruce W
