  1. Using Spring to get the service for your class (e.g. YourAppClass) (recommended)
    1. Add the SessionManager bean to the bean for YourAppClass
      Code Block
      xml
      xml
      <bean id="org.sakaiproject.yourapp.logic.YourAppClass"
      		class="org.sakaiproject.yourapp.logic.impl.YourAppClassImpl">
      	<property name="sessionManager"
      		ref="org.sakaiproject.tool.api.SessionManager" />
      </bean>
      
    2. Add a variable and setter to YourAppClass to use the service in like so:
      Code Block
      java
      java
      private SessionManager sessionManager;
      public void setSessionManager(SessionManager sessionManager) {
      	this.sessionManager = sessionManager;
      }
      
  2. Using the cover Component Manager to get the service

      private SessionManager sessionManager;
      
      Get access to the service using the cover Use the CM cover to get the service
      Code Block

      import org.sakaiproject.component.cover.ComponentManager;
      import org.sakaiproject.tool.coverapi.SessionManager.getInstance();
      
    Maven (project.xml) dependency Add the following to the maven file for the code in which you are using the service Code Blockxmlxml <dependency> <groupId>sakaiproject</groupId> <artifactId>sakai-tool-api</artifactId> <version>${sakai.version}</version> </dependency>
