How to avoid IllegalStateException during login & logout in a Script-Step?

Question

We have a certain situation where the current named user shall be logged out and be logged in as a different user. The problem is, that this results in an illegal task state. Code in the script step:

ivy.session.loginSessionUser("user1", "user1");

if(in.isSuperior == true) {
    ivy.session.loginSessionUser("superiorUser", "superiorUser");
    }

Exception:

Exception at element [13B4B87B3A16CFA4-f15-io0]: java.lang.IllegalStateException: State of Task must be one of the following values CREATED, RESUMED but is ZOMBIE:

Is there a way to avoid this behavoir?

If you login a session user all tasks that were resumed by the session are reset. This also includes the current task that executes the script step with the login statements. To avoid this use the overloaded method that takes an additional third parameter an provide it the identifier of the current task.

E.g.

ivy.session.loginSessionUser("user1", "password1", ivy.task.getId());

In this case all tasks that were resumed by the session are reset except the one with the given id.

Thanks. The API was not quite clear on the effect of this parameter. Works like a charm.
