I'm -1 on get_session() too. The request object is supposed to be a representation of Apache's request, and get_session() just does not belong there.

I handn't really intended to start working on an implementation. I just don't like seeing all those issues in JIRA marked as unassigned. :) Since I created it I figured I should take some responsibility for it. Plus, it's a gentle reminder when I list my assigned issues - resolve it one way or another.

I still think we need some sort of solution to the problem of people trying to create 2 session instances in the same request, but I agree that the original concept of req.get_session() was not quite right.

I would rather we not go ahead with adding req.get_session() at
this time. At least not how it was envisaged to be done previously.

I'll come back with a bit of analysis after I review where we were
up to previously.

--------------------------------------

    Assign To: Jim Gallacher

Add get_session() method to request object
------------------------------------------

         Key: MODPYTHON-59
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-59
     Project: mod_python
        Type: New Feature
  Components: session
    Versions: 3.1.4, 3.1.3, 3.2.7
 Environment: All
    Reporter: Jim Gallacher
    Assignee: Jim Gallacher
     Fix For: 3.3
 Attachments: Session.py.diff.txt

Users will get session instances by calling req.get_session(). If a session already exists it will be returned, otherwise a new session instance will be created. Session configuration will be handled using apache directives rather than within their code. Using this scheme means only one session instance will be created per request, which will eliminate the deadlock problems many people experience. Also, using this scheme makes it possible for sessions to be properly handled within psp pages and across req.internal_redirect() calls.
Code will be commited to svn shortly.
