NAME
CGI::Session::DB_File - DB_File driver for CGI::Session
SYNOPSIS
use CGI::Session;
$session = new CGI::Session("driver:DB_File", undef, {Directory=>'/tmp'});
For more details, refer to CGI::Session manual
DESCRIPTION
CGI::Session::DB_File is a CGI::Session driver to store session data in BerkeleyDB. Filename to store the session data is by default 'cgisess.db'. If you want different name, you can either specify it with the "FileName" option as below:
$s = new CGI::Session::DB_File(undef, {Directory=>'/tmp', FileName=>'sessions.db'});
or by setting the value of the $CGI::Session::DB_File::NAME variable before creating the session object:
$CGI::Session::DB_File::NAME = 'sessions.db';
$s = new CGI::Session("driver:DB_File", undef, {Directory=>'/tmp'});
The only driver option required, as in the above examples, is "Directory", which tells the driver where the session file and lock files should be created.
"FileName" option is also available, but not required.
