Well, this is not entirely true.
It is possible to inspect the Session object, the Session attributes and the Session attribute values (i.e. application domain objects store in the Session) using very carefully crafted OQL query statements, in either Gfsh or Pulse's DataBrowser
Tool (extension).
When using Spring Session for Apache Geode/Pivotal GemFire (SSDG), you can use the following OQL queries to inspect the Session
(e.g. HttpSession
).
You must be mindful, that certain OQL queries, depending on the Serialization format, may cause your application domain objects, or even SSDG's Session objects to get deserialized, in which case, you need to put SSDG, all of SSDG's dependencies (e.g. the core Spring Framework) and your application domain object types (i.e. classes) for the objects stored in the Session
on the server(s) classpath.

Hope this helps!
