Greetings,

I saw that on version 1.37 an issue with the serialization of context was
fixed:

1.37 2013-07-03

• Update recommended

• Added patch from Heiko Schlittermann fixing an issue with serialization of
  context (was evaluated as release 1.35_1)

  https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=64940

Although when I went to check the provided schemas for
Workflow::Persister::DBI, they seem to lack a table field to store it.
Also, in the code of Workflow::Persister::DBI, there seems to be no
context serialization.

To work around with this problem I wrote a new Persister that uses
DBIx::Class instead of DBI. This persister I wrote deals with context
serialization and allows you to customize where each attribute will be
stored within a schema.

In attachment, I send you the code for this Workflow::Persister::DBIx.
Feel free to add it to the module if you find it useful.

Best Regards,

Sérgio Alves
