Integration of Apache::Session is similar to other environments,
except where you put the code. In Apache::ASP, you can put it
in global.asa Script_OnStart to get run every time, then you
can init the session to look like the ASP $Session.
The only differences are you don't get the ASP API around $Session,
like session management with garbage collection/timeouts, events,
or other API calls like Lock(), Abandon(), SessionID().
Also, without using ASP session, you won't get to use
SessionQueryParse cookieless sessions either.
Here is some untested code that you could start with
for using Apache::Session with MySQL:
# in httpd.conf, turn off $Application, $Session
PerlSetVar NoState 1
# in global.asa
use Apache::Session::MySQL;
sub Script_OnStart {
# ... init mysql dbh before
my $id = $Request->Cookies("SESSION_ID");
tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::MySQL', $id, { Handle => $dbh, LockHandle => $dbh };
if($id ne $hash{_session_id}) {
$Response->Cookies("SESSION_ID", $hash{_session_id});
}
$Session = \%hash;
$Server->RegisterCleanup(sub { untie (%$Session) }); }
}
