The implementation includes write to disk and write to DB for 
fail-over. Tomcat's session manager is basic. I am not talking about 
interface difference but implementation difference.

Are you using XMLC 2.2? It's pretty straight forward to use XMLC 2.2 
with Tomcat. In fact, Tomcat is used as the development environment of 
XMLC 2.2. ;) There is an example in 2.2 distribution.

I thought the 5.0 has made that easy. There was a patch needed for 3.x 
which I have posted here. I think that's integrated into 5.x already.

According to Madl Alfred, that's the direction of Enhydra 6.0.
