> Hey, I've a problem to share session data from a portlet with an servlet (in a other context).

> An example, in portlet1 i put (or try to put) an attribute into the httpsession:

> 		PortletSession ps = PortletActionContext.getRequest().getPortletSession(true);
> 		String poco = (String)ctx.getAttribute("poco");
> 		if (poco == null) {
> 			System.out.println("poco == null!");

> 		} else {
> 			int newLoco = Integer.parseInt(loco);		
> 			newLoco++;
> 			ps.setAttribute("poco", ""+newLoco);
> 			System.out.println("poco rules: "+newLoco);
> 		}
> I also tried to use the overloaded method of setAttribute (ps.setAttribute("poco", ""+1, PortletSession.APPLICATION_SCOPE) and ps.setAttribute("poco", ""+1, PortletSession.PORTLET_SCOPE)) without success.

> In a servlet, i try to read out my http session (HttpSession sess = request.getSession(true) ...) but I never find my variable poco in the http session. The only thing that worked was using the portletcontext:

> 		PortletContext ctx = PortletActionContext.getPortletContext();
> 		String poco ...
> 
> But in this case, the scope of the session variable was just portlet-wide (portlet wide=all portlets, which are in the same .war file / defined in portlet.xml).
