should read "de"serialized data, sorry. let me try to explain: after successful login i write a status value "logged_in" = 1 into the session. this helps granting access to certain actions. Users should be allowed to log in only *once*. so during login i must search the whole session table for that user id, and then check if there is a session still existing with that id (for example because he closed the browser). if there is a valid session, then i'd like to deny access. if the session is expired, and still there (because _gc has *not* been called in the meantime) i'd want to force _gc. i might set the _gc probability to 1 to achieve this, but i dislike the idea... anyways, apart from read/write to the current session there seems to be no other routines out of the box for my needs. thats why i considered setting up a model for the session table. but when it comes to (de)serialisation i will wonder how to do it... jyrgen --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
