NAME

OpenFrame::AppKit::Session - sessions for OpenFrame

SYNOPSIS

  use OpenFrame::AppKit::Session;
  
  my $session = OpenFrame::AppKit::Session->new();

  my $id = $session->id();
  $session->store();

  my $restored = OpenFrame::AppKit::Session->fetch( $id );

DESCRIPTION

OpenFrame::AppKit::Session provides a session class that is capable of being stored and restored from disk. The session expects you to treat it as a standard HASH for all intents and purposes, but does allow you to encapsulate that with the methods get and set for top level keys.

METHODS

new
The new() method instantiates a new OpenFrame::AppKit::Session and returns it.
init
The init() method provides initialization routines for OpenFrame::AppKit::Session
id
The id() method returns the sessions id
generate_id
The generate_id() method returns a new id, or the old id if it has already been generated.
store
The store() method serializes the session to disk. It returns the session id that can be used to restore the session.
fetch
The fetch() method takes a session id as a parameter and returns a restored session from disk. In the case that the session is unavailable it returns nothing.
get
The get() method simply returns a key as specified by the first parameter and returns its value.
set
The set() method simply sets a key value pair as specified by the first two parameters.
