Introduction to
HTTP_Session
Overview
This package provides access to session-state values as well as session-level
settings and lifetime management methods.
Based on the standart PHP session handling mechanism
it provides more advanced features such as database containers, idle and expire timeouts, etc.
A few examples
Example 45-1. Setting some options and detection of a new session HTTP_Session::setCookieless(false);
HTTP_Session::start('MySessionID');
HTTP_Session::set('variable', 'Tet string');
if (HTTP_Session::isNew()) {
echo('new session was created with the current request');
$visitors++; // Increase visitors count
}
// after successful login use: HTTP_Session::regenerateId(); |
|
Example 45-2. Setting timeouts HTTP_Session::start();
HTTP_Session::setExpire(time() + 60 * 60); // expires in one hour
HTTP_Session::setIdle(time() + 10 * 60); // idles in ten minutes
// expired
if (HTTP_Session::isExpired()) {
echo('Your session is expired!');
HTTP_Session::destroy();
}
// idled
if (HTTP_Session::isIdle()) {
echo('You've been idle for too long!');
HTTP_Session::destroy();
}
HTTP_Session::updateIdle(); |
