[Webware-devel] WSGI WebKit Sessions

[Eric R. <th...@er...>]

I've been working on porting several apps over to the WSGI framework,
and found minor differences in session handling that require code
correction:

The current WSGI implementation returns None for uninitialized Session
variables, whereas WebKit would dump without a try...except pair.

Using Webware/WebKit:

    session = self.session()
    try:
        id = session['userid']
    except:
        id = None
    if id is None:
        """ Error """
    else
        """ Generate Page """

Using WSGIKit:

    session = self.session()
    id = session._values['userid']
    if id is None:
        """ Error """
    else
        """ Generate Page """

This is fine, but session[] always returns None, so I have to use
_values[]. Is this a bug or intended behavior?
