[Zope3-dev] HTTP sessions

[Peter Mayne]

In my IMDB application, I upload a fair amount of data. A lot of work 
happens on the server, and when it finishes, I'd like to inform the user 
of the results: how many records were added, how many failures, etc.

Normally I'd to this by adding something to the session when the work is 
done, then redirecting to a page which extracts the information from the 
  session and displays it. However, Z3 doesn't appear to support sessions.

Am I missing the obvious, or isn't session support there yet? If it 
isn't there yet, what alternatives do I have? For instance, I could 
write the information into a temporary folder using a random string as a 
key, then redirect to a page with that string as a parameter; the page 
could then retrieve the information from the temporary folder and 
display it. But Z3 appears not to have Z2's temporary storage either.

Thanks.
