I'm writing a perl script in which I need to save some session data. My
first attempt is to use a temporary table to store some data.
However, I'm a little unclear as to the lifespan of the temporary table.
My understanding is they last until the session ends, or a DELETE TABLE
is issued. My question is 'what is a session'?
For example, in my perl script I create and populate the table in one
subroutine, but need to access it from another in the same script. But
it doesn't appear to live through the transition from one subroutine to
another.
Anyone have an idea whether this can even be done, or does calling
another subroutine end the 'session', thus killing the table?
