NAME

6       Apache::Session::Informix - An implementation of Apache::Session
7

SYNOPSIS

9        use Apache::Session::Informix;
10
11        #if you want Apache::Session to open new DB handles:
12
13        tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::Informix', $id, {
14           DataSource => 'dbi:Informix:sessions',
15           UserName   => $db_user,
16           Password   => $db_pass,
17           Commit     => 1
18        };
19
20        #or, if your handles are already opened:
21
22        tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::Informix', $id, {
23           Handle => $dbh,
24           Commit => 1
25        };

DESCRIPTION

28       This module is an implementation of Apache::Session.  It uses the
29       Informix backing store and no locking.  See the example, and the docu‐
30       mentation for Apache::Session::Store::Informix for more details.
31

USAGE

33       The special Apache::Session argument for this module is Commit.  You
34       MUST provide the Commit argument, which instructs this module to either
35       commit the transaction when it is finished, or to simply do nothing.
36       This feature is provided so that this module will not have adverse
37       interactions with your local transaction policy, nor your local data‐
38       base handle caching policy.  The argument is mandatory in order to make
39       you think about this problem.
40
41       This module also respects the LongReadLen argument, which specifies the
42       maximum size of the session object.  If not specified, the default max‐
43       imum is 8 KB.
