note 66383 added to function.session-set-save-handler

Since register_shutdown_function() and __destruct() will not work on object based sessions, ESPECIALY when they are database based thru a class, then it seems you're screwed. Issue: register_shutdown_function('shutdown_function'); new sql(); new session(); on destruct: sql __destruct() session __destruct() // can't call sql since already destroyed shutdown_function() // can't call instances since already destroyed A trick is to use an "first class instance" <?php class my_proper_destructor { protected $destroyers = array(); function add($class_instance) { if (is_class($class_instance)) $destroyers[] = $class_instance; } function __destruct() { foreach($destroyers as $des) $des->on_destroy(); } } $destruct = new my_proper_destructor(); // All your code starts here like: class session { function __construct() { global $destruct; $destruct->add($this); } } ?> Since my_proper_destructor is created first it also gets destroyed as the first. That way you can still call important class instances that need to do something on destruct. ---- Server IP: 194.109.193.119 Probable Submitter: 82.197.202.154 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-set-save-handler.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/66383 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66383/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66383/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66383/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66383/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66383/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66383/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/66383 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/66383 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
