• WebLogic Server 10.3.2( or 10.3.1 )
• Coherence 3.5.2/463

If you use other verion above, then please check the following matrix:

Environment Variables

%COHERENCE_HOME%: coherence installation directory

%DOMAIN_HOME%: weblogic domain foler.

Instructions

We Will create to weblogic domains: domain_a, domain_b. To configure those domains with coherence-based session management . Then the changings of session variable value in one domain will propagate to another domain.

Main Steps

WebLogic Server

1. create domain_a
   The process is ignored
2. copy %COHERENCE_HOME%\lib\coherence.jar to %DOMAIN_HOME%\lib
3. startup domain
4. deploy %COHERENCE_HOME%\lib\coherence-web-spi.war as a Shared Library
5. repeat step 1~4 at domain_b

Coherence

1. duplicate %COHERENCE_HOME%\bin\cache-server.cmd at the same folder and rename it to web-cache-server.cmd
2. modify web-cache-server.cmd
   java -server -Xms512m -Xmx512m -cp %coherence_home%/lib/coherence.jar;%coherence_home%/lib/coherence-web-spi.war -Dtangosol.coherence.management.remote=true -Dtangosol.coherence.cacheconfig=WEB-INF/classes/session-cache-config.xml -Dtangosol.coherence.session.localstorage=true com.tangosol.net.DefaultCacheServer
3. startup web-cache-server.cmd

Testing

1. develop a web app  with OEPE or JDeveloper and implment functions: changing, viewing, listing  session variables. ( or download sample codes here )
2. modify weblogic.xml with following content:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
   <wls:weblogic-web-app xmlns:wls=http://xmlns.oracle.com/weblogic/weblogic-web-app

    xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance

    xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd

    http://xmlns.oracle.com/weblogic/weblogic-web-app

    http://xmlns.oracle.com/weblogic/weblogic-web-app/1.0/weblogic-web-app.xsd">
       <wls:weblogic-version>10.3.2</wls:weblogic-version>
       <wls:context-root>CoherenceWeb</wls:context-root>
       <wls:library-ref>
           <wls:library-name>coherence-web-spi</wls:library-name>
           <wls:specification-version>1.0.0.0</wls:specification-version>
           <wls:exact-match>true</wls:exact-match>
       </wls:library-ref>
   </wls:weblogic-web-app>

3. deploy the web app to domain_a and domain_b
4. change session varaible vlaue at domain_a and check whethe if changed at domain_b
