This is a hard problem to solve, and I'm not sure how to
do it ... I have thought about it a couple times now, w/o
clear resolution.
The only things that the ASP $Session has that Apache::Session
does not is the event handlers, like hooks into Session_OnStart,
Session_OnEnd, Application_OnStart, Application_OnEnd.
If you don't need these event handlers, then you could use
Apache::Session very well for you needs, as well as ASP $Session,
then you can turn sessions off in ASP, and set $Session
to an Apache::Session like:
sub Script_OnStart {
$Session = &Apache::Session::initcode;
}
Then your Apache::Session will be available in your ASP scripts
as $Session
Do you really want the events outside the context of ASP ?
