In addition, one embodiment of the invention manages the lifecycle of a first session object based on corresponding lifecycles of one or more related session objects and also the type of relationship existing between the first session object and the one or more related session objects. In one embodiment, the defined relationship types include strong references, weak references, and soft references.
