Bummer. How long is the session data container timeout set for? Are you sure you're just not exceeding the timeout?
The session timeout is 120 minutes. I am using an external SessionDataComainter stored in the normal undo-able ZODB (I'm not expecting that much traffic to it). Looking into it further I don't think it is a CST fault :) I think I have fixed the problem. It was me not setting _p_changed on an object with a dict after adding items to the dict. Hence the session wasn't being lost, just the conents of the cart itself were not very persistent :) I'll be able to confirm this later today.
Yes, any sort of object can go into session data... there are some caveats documented in the helpfile (for instance, acquisition-wrapped objects shouldn't be stored in session data), but otherwise anything's game.
I can't find anything about acquisition-wrapped objects in the helpfile, what is the problem with them? -Matt -- Matt Hamilton matth@netsight.co.uk Netsight Internet Solutions, Ltd.
