   43: =head1 Description
   44: 
   45: LondTransaction objects hold the state required to manage a 
   46: transaction between lonc and lond, from the loncnew point of view.
   47: The state consists of the following member data:
   48: 
   49: =item request
   50: 
   51: The text of the request to send to lond.
   52: 
   53: =item active
   54: 
   55: If zero, the request is not active and the londSocket item is not
   56: defined.
   57: 
   58: =item londSocket
   59: 
   60: If the request is active,
   61: this member contains the LondConnection object reference that
   62: this request is being processed on.
   63: 
   64: =item deferred
   65: 
   66: True if the request is a deferred (delayed) request.
   67: The member data below are either present or not depending on 
   68: whether or not deferred is true.
   69: 
   70: =item clientSocket
   71:    
   72: If deferred is false, this member data is defined and is the 
   73: handle to the socket that is connected to the apache child that
   74: has requested this transaction.
   75: 
   76: =item DeferredFile
   77: 
   78: If deferred is false, this member data is defined and is the name
   79: of the file that contains the deferred request.  When the transaction
   80: is retired, this file will be deleted.

   82: =head1 Member Functions
