The AutoApplySession annotation provides an application the ability to declaratively designate that an authentication mechanism uses the javax.servlet.http.registerSession and auto applies this for every request.

See the Jakarta Authentication spec for further details on javax.servlet.http.registerSession.

This support is provided via an implementation of a Jakarta Interceptors interceptor that conducts the necessary logic.

Example:

 
      @RequestScoped
      @AutoApplySession
     public class CustomAuthenticationMechanism implements HttpAuthenticationMechanism {
         // ...
     }
