Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=27555&edit=1 ID: 27555 Comment by: jonimane at gmail dot com Reported by: jaanus at heeringson dot com Summary: Unable to modify $_SESSION from __destruct() Status: No Feedback Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: Linux 2.4.24 PHP Version: 5CVS-2004-03-10 (dev) Assigned To: helly Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I have the same problem. I am trying to set an SESSION variable in a destructor method, but it didnt work. And what about feedback? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-29 23:40:16] acetox94 at gmx dot de What about destroying the object with unset? This should call the __destruct()-Function before the session ends.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-03 16:49:42] bjoern at heyser dot ac I'am also interested in infomation to the issue. I use php 5.2 an run into the same issues when I write a session wrapper class. Will the "(unwanted) feature" becomes removed or is there any sense for calling destructors after php modules are shutdown.. A further issue I think is the current working directory that isn't available in destructors as well as in custom registered shutdown functions. best regards, björn (sorry for my english) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-10-20 19:44:34] gabriel at gabrielharrison dot co dot uk Hi, I can not find anything in the documentation about this. Was it added or was the feature changed in newer versions? Thanks, Gabriel ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-07 21:54:57] ondraster at gmail dot com Sorry for my last comment, I had bad PHP version in httpd.conf. I feel ashamed... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-07 21:23:18] ondraster at gmail dot com This bug (unwanted feature maybe?) is really annoying. For example I want, when __destroy, write to session last visited address. This bug (feature) has been submitted in year 2004 and still has no fix or there has not been any reason why are all modules unloaded before __destroy is called? When running __destroy, script is still running so there's no reason why this function shouldn't have all resources. I don't know, why this is classified as Documentation problem, when it is clearly BUG! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
