Definitely. You also need to read the man pages, but I've saved you the
trouble...
$r->err_headers_out->add('Set-Cookie' => $packed_cookie->as_string);
Good - you could also $packed_cookie->bake($r);
The man page then says to use APR::Request::Cookie I should:
my $jar = $r->jar;
my $cookie = $jar->get("ISMH_SESSION_ID");
jar() returns undef if the browser sent no Cookie header - hence "can't
call get method on undefined".
It's also tied to a hash - $$jar{ISMH_SESSION_ID}
$cookie is an object, which supports the "" overload, but I struggled to
use that. The bit you're missing goes after that:
$ismh_session_id = $cookie->value();
Freeze and Thaw are only needed if the cookie value is a data structure
like a hash, not needed in this case.
