This action creates and terminates a session.
The action is controlled via parameters. The action parameter defines
the action (creating or terminating).
The value "create" creates a new session (if not already available)
The value "terminate" terminates the session. The termination can be controlled
with a second parameter "mode": The default value "immediately" terminates
the session, the value "if-unused" terminates the session only if no
session context is available anymore. This means the user must not have
any own session context and must not be authenticated anymore using
the uthentication framework.

Methods inherited from class org.apache.cocoon.acting.ServiceableAction
Controls the processing against some values of the
Dictionary objectModel and returns a
Map object with values used in subsequent
sitemap substitution patterns.
NOTE: This interface is designed so that implentations can be ThreadSafe.
When an action is ThreadSafe, only one instance serves all requests : this
reduces memory usage and avoids pooling.
objectModel - The Map with object of the
calling environment which can be used
to select values this controller may need
(ie Request, Response).
source - A source String to the Action
par - The Parameters for this invocation
Returns:
Map The returned Map object with
sitemap substitution values which can be used
in subsequent elements attributes like src=
using a xpath like expression: src="mydir/{myval}/foo"
If the return value is null the processing inside
the element of the sitemap will
be skipped.
