i'd really like it if sessions were wrapped into tg a bit
this is soley so that we can put in app.cfg:
{{{
tg_session.automatic_lock = True
}}}
which will call
{{{
cherrypy.session.acquire_lock()
}}}
at the beginning of each reqest
why would we want that?
a_ since TG has all the AJAX support, tg is prone to runing into session
issues that caused cherrypy to add that feature in the first place. a
transparent automagic lock should mitigate most problems before they even
exist
b_ it instantiates the session lock so sessions can be addressed in custom
form validators , and elsewhere
I tried to figure out how to toss it into the code, but couldn't. If
someone can point me to the right module, where an autolcok could be
called ( it has to have access to the request ) i'll be happy to write it
- can't be more than 3 lines in the cfg and 2 lines in the right class
the current way to implement sessions is a bit awkward too , i think
wrapping more session info into tg would clarify it a bit ( right now
(based on newsgroup postings) i have a session dsn in my app.cfg, and my
controller sets the get_db() function on every request. thats really more
of a hack than a methodology. i tried to do this functionality myself for
3 hours today, and couldn't wrap it into tg in a clean way (maybe thats
why it doesn't exist?)
