I have java application which has token based authentication , I am not using servlets ,once user is logged in i need to maintain the session for some time . i am not able to figure out how to achieve this.

if(response_code == 200){
//logged in and set session here
}
else{
//unauthorized
}

the above shows the skeleton and session needs to be set there, so even if user comes without token next time he should be able to log in. How to achieve this in java

What is the restriction of using servlets? It will be like reinventing the wheel if you have to implement sessions. – Ganesh chaitanya Jun 19 '19 at 05:21

if not session how to create cookie and send it as response in java – Mohan Kumar Jun 19 '19 at 05:50
You cannot create a cookie as well since its in javax.sevlet package. I guess you have to create your own Class which has the logic of tracking time verifies if the user is in a session. – Ganesh chaitanya Jun 19 '19 at 06:19
