AW: solution for HttpSession

Hi Joerg,

cool that this works now. Hover you look at the toString() method, consider
that the StrutsCXDocumentBuilder uses it to serialize Objects you hand it
over as HttpSession, HttpServletRequest, etc.

Berny

J.Bloch ("effective java") says[translated from the german edition]:
"you should always overwrite toString().....
                                                 ...this mehtod intends
to help the _user_ of the class...
                                                 ...if possible, this
method should return all interesting dato..
 and some more good reasons.

no good idea, because of the (un)expected behavior of this method

I  commented out a part of the method (the for-loop). I hope this causes
no trouble?
For now, it works fine
