I've been working on a web customization using lwp_validate_cart in TNEW to add seats in the background using the same stored procedures the api's would normally call to add seats. The part I'm missing is the seat server session id. Based on what I've seen in tracing the web and the client, they both seem to know what their session id is without doing any sql calls to get it, and it doesn't look like there are any ways to get a seat server session using sql. (I would love to be wrong about that.)
Looking in the Seat Server doc, they briefly describe using a fixed protocol or a stateless protocol to connect to the seat server. But I'm pretty unclear about how to use those.
Does anyone have some idea what I should be looking into to communicate with the seat server? And do I have any hope of establishing a session using sql?
Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Brian
