[Seaside] trouble accessing session variables..

[Diego Lont]

Hi Sergio,

I know that debugging in a session is tricky, because once you halt: you are accessing this from a different context. What I usually do is assign the thing that I am interested in to a local variable, and then inspect. That is:

….
temp := self session oauthToken.
self halt.
…

This allows me to inspect / explore the variables I am interested in.

By the way: I assume you derive from WASession and set the session class for your app?
