Re[2]: [Phplib-users] php4 session fix, and some thoughts

[Maxim D. <max...@bo...>]

Hello, Lindsay,

I did not promise that Session4* classes will be 100% compatible with
the Session3 (I call it so). $sess->in is to be deprecated in the Session4,
just because it is not possible to make it work the right way. That's
why the API change. I suppose we should not bloat the code and/or mess
with the global scope to solve the problem. It would be better just to
change the documented auto_init behavior for the Session4. So, I consider
it a documentation problem, that should be solved.
Of course, You can not be sure that everything will work with the Session4
as it used to work with the Session3. Say, You might register
something like $some_object->some_property with the Session3, while it
simply won't work in the Session4 case, somebody could rely on
Session3 serialize() data format, while it has nothing in common
with the PHP4 session serialization format, and so on.
