How can I replace Wildfly 9's default SessionManager with a custom implementation for all web apps?

Question

Based on my understanding of the Undertow docs and this stack overflow post, I think I should be able to provide my own implementation of SessionManager.

I have created a jar file containing:

• a SessionManager implementation
• a SessionManagerFactory implementation
• a ServletExtension implementation
• a META-INF/services/io.undertow.servlet.ServletExtension file containing the fully qualified name of my class

Have I done this right? How do I get Undertow to pick this up?

Thanks

If you did all that, all you need is to have that jar in your war/WEB-INF/lib and that is it.

When war is deploying WildFly will look for this ServletExtension and tell undertow to load it.
