Hi all! I need some advice on how to make some comfort into mod_perl Response Handler.
I used cookies and sessions to authenticate and authorizate user into my app ( Apache2::AuthCookie ). So, every handler ( or most of them ) have to get cookie, take a session id from it, makes session, and only then do its own work. So, the question is: Is there a possibility to get tied session hash more quickly ? The same thing happens with Tamplate object. Most part of my scripts have to generate output over a Template Toolkit. So, may I declare the Template object in the only place, and then use it into response handlers ? Well, I'm new to the mod_perl, but I have already read enough info about numerous frameworks. I'm not shure yet: was it good idea to start project with "clear" mod_perl and not using Catalyst for example. May be some one has some serious arguments whether to use frameworks or not ? As I understand from documentation: frameworks give me everything: and what I need, and what I don't need. But I want to use Template if I want it, and don't use it else :)
