      void access(Consumer<HttpSession> sessionConsumer)
      Call to access the session with the same semantics as if the session was accessed during an HTTP request.

      The effect of this call on the session is as if an HTTP request starts; Consumer.accept(Object) is called with the associated session object enabling the application to interact with the session; and, once that method returns, the HTTP request ends.

      Parameters:
      sessionConsumer - the application provided Consumer instance that will access the session
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException - if the session with the ID to which the HttpSession.Accessor is associated is no longer valid
