Hello,
this morning, when I woke up, taken from curiosity, I've opened hunchentoot code to inspect how sessions are handled.
I've seen that session modifiers are all protected with the WITH-LOCK form, now my question is *session-data* common to
all hunchentoot servers instantiated on the same lisp instance ?

Another question, now suppose we have in a single hunchentoot server serves two applications ( distinguished by their path ).
It seems that hunchentoot shares the session between  these two, and sometime it's good, but what should I do if I want applications to share different sessions ?

Ok,
you convinced me.
For now I can use elephant for my cl-webobjects project.
Then I could hack swarmcache (http://swarmcache.sourceforge.net/)
and port it to lisp (if I gain a bit more experience in CL coding)

So you shouldn't be using HTTPS with hunchentoot too, 'cause it
depends on a foreign ssl library. That's the trade. But you may want
to chose waiting for somebody to implement an ACID compliant storage
framework in lisp -- with tons of other indexing, concurrency, data
integrity stuff. (By the way, there exists commercial solutions. See
AllegroCache for instance.)

On the other hand, IIRC elephant could use Berkeley DB as a
backend. AFAICS, probability of finding libdb installed on a system is
much more higher than finding libssl installed.


Regards.
