Contdown on Servlet Session

java, jsp, servlets, session, session-timeout

Solution

You can compute the remaining time (in seconds) using the HttpSession API:

httpSession.getMaxInactiveInterval() - ((System.currentTimeMillis() - httpSession.getLastAccessedTime())/1000

Problem

I need to create a countdown on the servlet´s session to fire events when X minutes to expire... So, there is a way to know how many seconds is remaining to finish the session?
