I haven't tried it myself, but instead of using
Apache::AxKit::Plugin::BasicSession as an AxKit plugin, you can try setting
it up in one of the mod_perl handler phases, just as long as it happens
before the content phase. This would cause it to fire on all requests, not
just AxKit requests, and would set up the session object in the pnotes table.
Then, you should be able to use the methods provided in
AxKit::XSP::BasicSession (e.g.
AxKit::XSP::BasicSession::get_attribute("foo")). I have a version of that
module somewhere (I just checked CPAN, and it doesn't seem to be there) that
allows you to construct a BasicSession object, enabling you to use it outside
of AxKit.
Another possibility is to simply create your own Apache::Session handler, and
store the session in $r->pnotes() (just look at the existing Plugin code to
see how this is done). However, done this way, you wouldn't get all the
nifty options that the BasicSession plugin gives you (like last_modified
time, etc).
