NAME
       CGI::Session::Driver::mysql - CGI::Session driver for MySQL database

SYNOPSIS
           $s = CGI::Session->new( 'driver:mysql', $sid);
           $s = CGI::Session->new( 'driver:mysql', $sid, { DataSource  => 'dbi:mysql:test',
                                                          User        => 'sherzodr',
                                                          Password    => 'hello' });
           $s = CGI::Session->new( 'driver:mysql', $sid, { Handle => $dbh } );

DESCRIPTION
       mysql stores session records in a MySQL table. For details see CGI::Session::Driver::DBI,
       its parent class.

       It's especially important for the MySQL driver that the session ID column be defined as a
       primary key, or at least "unique", like this:

        CREATE TABLE sessions (
            id CHAR(32) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
            a_session TEXT NOT NULL
         );

       To use different column names, change the 'create table' statement, and then simply do
       this:

           $s = CGI::Session->new('driver:mysql', undef,
           {
               TableName=>'session',
               IdColName=>'my_id',
               DataColName=>'my_data',
               DataSource=>'dbi:mysql:project',
           });

       or

           $s = CGI::Session->new('driver:mysql', undef,
           {
               TableName=>'session',
               IdColName=>'my_id',
               DataColName=>'my_data',
               Handle=>$dbh,
           });

   DRIVER ARGUMENTS
       mysql driver supports all the arguments documented in CGI::Session::Driver::DBI. In
       addition, DataSource argument can optionally leave leading "dbi:mysql:" string out:

           $s = CGI::Session->new( 'driver:mysql', $sid, {DataSource=>'shopping_cart'});
           # is the same as:
           $s = CGI::Session->new( 'driver:mysql', $sid, {DataSource=>'dbi:mysql:shopping_cart'});

   BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY
       As of V 4.30, the global variable $CGI::Session::MySQL::TABLE_NAME cannot be used to set
       the session table's name.

       This is due to changes in CGI::Session::Driver's new() method, which now allows the
       table's name to be changed (as well as allowing both the 'id' column name and the
       'a_session' column name to be changed).

       See the documentation for CGI::Session::Driver::DBI for details.

       In particular, the new syntax for "new()" applies to all database drivers, whereas the old
       - and bad - global variable method only applied to MySQL.

       Alternately, call $session -> table_name('new_name') just after creating the session
       object if you wish to change the session table's name.
