Bug #8719 Updated: session variable not working

ID: 8719 Updated by: danbeck Reported By: apere@agilitime.com Old-Status: Analyzed Status: Closed Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating system: PHP Version: 4.0.4 Assigned To: Comments: Added to session_register() documentation in latest cvs. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-15 17:27:01] sniper@php.net It isn't currently possible to register resource variables into session. This is actually a documentation problem as this isn't mentioned on any of the session related documentation pages. --Jani --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-15 13:14:16] apere@agilitime.com I'm trying (and in fact it seems to work fine) to register a connection id to a postgres database : /***********************************/ // the followig instruction works fine and $cnx_id // gets a value (it is not null) $cnx_id = pg_connect ("host= blah blah..."); session_register('cnx_id'); /***********************************/ And when I try "session_is_registered('cnx_id');", I get TRUE (even in another script, which is what I want), but unfortunately, $cnx_id is null in every other script... Does anybody know about this ? NB : the very same code works fine if for example $cnx_id is a string ($cnx_id = "test";) instead of this database thing. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
