bsddb Session

[Ron Reisor <ro...@UDel.Edu>]

I've been using a small class derived from Session.BaseSession that stores
session data in a bsddb file.  The advantage is it can store a lot more
data per session than anydbm.  Any interest in adding this to mod_python?

cheers,

Ron

Oh, sorry, I didn't make this very clear.

anydbm would use the built-in bsd db.  But this new class uses the bsddb3
Python interface to bsd db 3 or 4 and allows bigger sessions.

Now that you mention it, maybe it's just a bug that anydbm couldn't
handle more than about 4k bytes, but I remember deciding it was a
limitation of using db1.85. I'd rather throw this class away if the anydbm
class can handle the session data.

Thanks, but I thought anydbm will use bsddb if it is available?
