An application
can use the SAS Foundation Services to access another application's
session context.
Note: A foundation service-enabled
application can be either a standard client application or a Web client
application that runs in a servlet container.
In the preceding figure,
Applications 1 through 4 use the same remotely deployed Session Service.
When Application 1 launches Application 2, it passes its session ID
to Application 2. Application 2 can then bind to the remote Session
Service and obtain and use Application 1's session and user context
information. This allows the user to seamlessly pass through to Application
2 without requiring a separate login definition.
