Clarification/Verification

For template URLs, the spec says:

 

“The following portlet URL parameters are defined for
the purpose of enabling a Consumer's templates to be generic to a Producer. If
the Consumer includes wsrp-portletHandle, wsrp-userContextKey, wsrpportletInstanceKey,
wsrp-sessionID, wsrp-portletStates, or wsrp-pageState in a template, Producer
written URLs based on that template MUST replace the specified portlet URL
parameter with the value the Consumer separately supplied in a data field.”

 

wsrp-portletHandle                     PortletContext               portletHandle

wsrp-userContextKey                 UserContext                  userContextKey

wsrp-portletInstanceKey             RuntimeContext
            portletInstanceKey

wsrp-sessionID                          SessionParams
            sessionID

wsrp-pageState                          RuntimeContext
            pageState

wsrp-portletStates                      RuntimeContext
            portletStates

 

Does that mean if I create a new sessionID it does not get
set on a template URL until the consumer passes it to me in subsequent requests?
