note 38716 added to function.session-set-save-handler

While implementing my own user--level database--based session handling class, found a *weird* thing: As stated in oficial PHP documentation on this page, rough--shaped garbage collecting function looks like: function gc ($maxlifetime) { return true; } But I found that this function should have *NO* arguments! While having one argument, error message was like this: Warning: Missing argument 1 for _sessiongc() in <mySessionMgmtClass.class.php> on line <lineNo> I removed any arguments, and finally ended with this rough--shaped gc function, which works: function gc() { $maxlifetime = ini_get ('session.gc_maxlifetime'); return true; } Anybody has experience like this? Pretty weird!? A PHP engine bug? My PHP version is 4.3.4 . I even looked around in php-4.3.4/ext/session/mod_user.c but as I'm not a PHP engine developer, coudn't find any obvious cause of this. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-set-save-handler.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+38716 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+38716&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+38716&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
