(PHP 4 >= 4.0.0)
session_set_save_handler --
Sets user-level session storage functions
Description
void
session_set_save_handler
(string
open, string
close, string
read, string
write, string
destroy, string
gc)
session_set_save_handler() sets the user-level
session storage functions which are used for storing and
retrieving data associated with a session. This is most useful
when a storage method other than those supplied by PHP sessions
is preferred. i.e. Storing the session data in a local database.
Note:
You must set the configuration option
session.save_handler to
user in your php.ini file for
session_set_save_handler() to take effect.
Note:
The "write" handler is not executed until after the output
stream is closed. Thus, output from debugging statements in the
"write" handler will never be seen in the browser. If debugging
output is necessary, it is suggested that the debug output be
written to a file instead.
The following example provides file based session
storage similar to the PHP sessions default save handler
files. This example could easily be
extended to cover database storage using your favorite PHP
supported database engine.
Example 1.
session_set_save_handler() example
<?php
function open ($save_path, $session_name) {
global $sess_save_path, $sess_session_name;
$sess_save_path = $save_path;
$sess_session_name = $session_name;
return(true);
}
function close() {
return(true);
}
function read ($id) {
global $sess_save_path, $sess_session_name;
$sess_file = "$sess_save_path/sess_$id";
if ($fp = @fopen($sess_file, "r")) {
$sess_data = fread($fp, filesize($sess_file));
return($sess_data);
} else {
return("");
}
}
function write ($id, $sess_data) {
global $sess_save_path, $sess_session_name;
$sess_file = "$sess_save_path/sess_$id";
if ($fp = @fopen($sess_file, "w")) {
return(fwrite($fp, $sess_data));
} else {
return(false);
}
}
function destroy ($id) {
global $sess_save_path, $sess_session_name;
$sess_file = "$sess_save_path/sess_$id";
return(@unlink($sess_file));
}
