Re: [Cgi-session-user] new release coming up, and some bug squashing help requests

[Sherzod R. <she...@ha...>]

For those who may end up volunteering for bug 21952 about "CGI::Session
altering data for wrong behavior"

Using the very little time I had available I tried to apply the =
suggested
patch, it worked except for sqlite driver, which didn't take it well. =
But
test script t/bug21952.t confirms the wrong behavior. So reversed the
changes to the Session/Driver.pm, and left the test script at failing =
state.

The second bug that this report reveals is premature destruction of the
driver object. I thought I could quickly fix this problem by turning the
CGI::Session::Driver into a singleton, but unfortunately t/g4_mysql.t =
test
didn't take it well.

So I guess the fix wasn't meant to be a quick one afterall, and decided =
to
let you guys know about my failure and findings, hopefully this report =
will
be of some use to someone.

You can work with t/bug21952.t, which is a test that fails to reveal the
first problem.
