This object is created when the JSP page is initialized and will be removed when the JSP page is removed by the jspDestroy() method.By adding an attribute to application, you can ensure that all JSP files that make up your web application have access to it.

When you are done with a user's session data, you have several options −Remove a particular attribute − You can call the public void removeAttribute(String name) method to delete the value associated with the particular key.Delete the whole session − You can call the public void invalidate() method to discard an entire session.Setting Session timeout − You can call the public void setMaxInactiveInterval(int interval) method to set the timeout for a session individually.Log the user out − The servers that support servlets 2.4, you can call logout to log the client out of the Web server and invalidate all sessions ...
