HTML::Embperl::Session
An adaptation of Apache::Session to work with HTML::Embperl
By Specifing this attribute, you tell Apache::Session to not do any access to the object store, until the first read or write access to the tied hash. Otherwise the tie function will make sure the hash exist or creates a new one.
Setting this to one causes Apache::Session to create a new session with the given id (or a new id, depending on recreate_id) when the specified session id does not exists. Otherwise it will die.
recreate_id
Setting this to one causes Apache::Session to create a new session id when the specified session id does not exists.
Specify the class for the object store. (The Apache::Session:: prefix is optional) Only for Apache::Session 1.00.
Specify the class for the lock manager. (The Apache::Session:: prefix is optional) Only for Apache::Session 1.00.
Specify the class for the object store. (The Apache::Session::Store prefix is optional) Only for Apache::Session 1.5x.
Specify the class for the lock manager. (The Apache::Session::Lock prefix is optional) Only for Apache::Session 1.5x.
Specify the class for the id generator. (The Apache::Session::Generate prefix is optional) Only for Apache::Session 1.5x.
Specify the class for the data serializer. (The Apache::Session::Serialize prefix is optional) Only for Apache::Session 1.5x.
Example using attrubtes to specfiy store and object classes instead of a derived class:
use HTML::Embperl::Session; tie %session, 'HTML::Embperl::Session', undef, { object_store => 'DBIStore', lock_manager => 'SysVSemaphoreLocker', DataSource => 'dbi:Oracle:db' };
NOTE: HTML::Embperl::Session will require the nessecary additional perl modules for you.
Set the session id for futher accesses.
Get the session id. The difference to using $session{_session_id} is, that in lazy mode, getid will not create a new session id, if it doesn't exists.
Writes any pending data, releases all locks and deletes all data from memory.

This class was written by Jeffrey Baker (jeffrey@kathyandjeffrey.net) but it is taken wholesale from a patch that Gerald Richter (richter@ecos.de) sent me against Apache::Session.
