[Gitstat-devel] Multiple gitstat instances on one webserver and how it's solved

[Paul V. <pau...@gm...>]

Hi,

On my test/development box I have two 'instances' of gitstat. One that covers
the kernel and one that covers Wine.

We were using $_SESSION['apid'] to hold the email address of the users that's 
logged in. Needless to say that when I logged in to 'Kernel', 'Wine' also 
thought that I was logged in and looking at the email-address it shows the 
'Kernel' one. Confusion altogether.

I've fixed this by introducing:

$_SESSION[$GSTAT[GIT_PROJECT_NAME]] to hold the email address of the logged in 
user. I of course rely here on the fact that project names will most of the time 
be different.

I had to fix another problem after this. When I login to both everything is fine 
but when I logout of one I was also 'logged out' of the other because the 
session was destroyed.

I've fixed that by introducing:

$_SESSION['sessioncount'] that's incremented on login() and decremented on 
logout(). The session is only destroyed when $_SESSION['sessioncount'] reaches 0.

It's not perfect but it works for me.

Cheers,

Paul.
