I am getting really frustrated with storing and retreiving objects from a session. But it may be because of my lack of knowledge in sessions First some system specs:
OS - Vista Home 32bit Webserver - IIS 7 PHP - PHP 5.2.11
php.ini session.auto_start = 1
So, when I decide to store an object array in the session, it works just fine. I can also retrieve it from the session but with an extra attribute mentioning: "__PHP_Incomplete_Class_Name" with the value of the Object Name.
Code when I try to retrieve object from session:
Code: $hits = $_SESSION['hitsArray']; // Array of MyObject AMethodThatDoesSomething($hits[0]); // Requires MyObject Type
And this is where it fails: I get following information in the debugger:
__PHP_Incomplete_Class_Name | MyObject Attribute 1 | A value Attribute 2 | Another Value ....And so on....
Ok, so I did some research and found out objects do not work if you have "session.auto_start = 1" in php.ini AND that you need to add following line above your session_start():
Code: require_once("MyObject.php"); session_start(); header("Cache-control: private"); session_register('hitsArray'); // Array of MyObject $_SESSION['hitsArray'] = $hits; // Store into session
So, I changed "session.auto_start = 0" in php.ini and added the required line above. Well then it didn't even store my object array in the session in the first place!
Now I feel that I am stumbling in the dark and hope for someone to be able to help me in my ordeal!
