How do I do this? Should I do this? I want to provide different
"doorways" to my app using DirectActions, but I need to set the
NavigationRootChoice in session in order to set up state for the
ERXNavigation stuff (each doorway presents a different navigation
menu). Ideally I guess I would use ERXThreadStorage here, but I am
not sure how to access it from the NavigationMenu.plist (currently I
use session.navigationRootChoice).
I will leave the creating a session question for you to decide. (i.e.
Session are not inherently bad, it depends on your needs (the number
of visitors, etc) - some times they are the right solution).
Creating the session however is easy. Within your direct action method:
Session session = (Session)session();
This will return the session if it exists or create a new one if it
doesn't.
You will need to decide how to handle the session id, either in the
url or via cookies. Cookies will keep the url cleaner.
