A lazy val in a singleton will not work.
Once it's calculated, it's calculated and cannot be changed for the life of
the singleton. If the singleton is global scope, you're really hosed.
RequestVars are the Lift way of sharing information across snippets on a
request-by-request basis.
If you want lazy evaluation of the RequestVar:
object Invoice extends RequestVar(S.param("invoice_id").flatMap(id =>
Invoice.find(id))) // type inferred to Box[Invoice]
If you want to share information across the scope of your session, use a
SessionVar.
SessionVar works exactly like RequestVar, but the lifespan of the SessionVar
is your session.
