<FONT color="green">027</FONT> * It is a common Shiro implementation strategy to use a Subject's session to persist the Subject's identity and<a name="line.27"></a>
<FONT color="green">028</FONT> * authentication state (e.g. after login) so that information does not need to be passed around for any further<a name="line.28"></a>
<FONT color="green">029</FONT> * requests/invocations. This effectively allows a session id to be used for any request or invocation as the only<a name="line.29"></a>
<FONT color="green">030</FONT> * 'pointer' that Shiro needs, and from that, Shiro can re-create the Subject instance based on the referenced Session.<a name="line.30"></a>
<FONT color="green">031</FONT> * &lt;p/&gt;<a name="line.31"></a>
<FONT color="green">032</FONT> * However, in purely stateless applications, such as some REST applications or those where every request is<a name="line.32"></a>
<FONT color="green">033</FONT> * authenticated, it is usually not needed or desirable to use Sessions to store this state (since it is in<a name="line.33"></a>
<FONT color="green">034</FONT> * fact re-created on every request). In these applications, sessions would never be used.<a name="line.34"></a>
<FONT color="green">035</FONT> * &lt;p/&gt;<a name="line.35"></a>
