Status: Open
Bug Type: Session related
PHP Version: 5.0.3
New Comment:
The way ZE is designed, this behavior is pretty darned unlikely to
change anytime before PHP7.
HOWEVER: I would qualify it as an "undocumented feature", as such it
is subject to removal without notice. So use at your own risk.
Plus, as sniper said, if your PHP was compiled with --disable-session
then $_SESSION will be unavailable anyway.
To ensure maximum compatability you're best off use
$GLOBALS['somevar']['index'] = 'foo'; or global $somevar;
$somevar['index'] = 'foo';

Well, personally I don't think it's a bug.
Other autoglobals are registered in the same time too (i.e. at module
init time).

Yes, it's definately a bug. And I wouldn't suggest using $_SESSION like
that as we might a) fix this bug b) this won't work if session extension
is not enabled..

Description:
------------
Without using session_start() and setting $_SESSION['test']='hi there';
in a class and echoing thise $_SESSION['test'] outside the class with
echo the 'hi there'...
I was told it was a bug...
Althougth I am hoping it is NOT a bug and that I will be able to use
that super global for my Session Management class.
So I can use $_SESSION['test'] in my classes instead of
$GLOBAS['session_vars']['test']. which is way too long for my test.
Reproduce code:
---------------
class tester()
{
function __construct()
{
$_SESSION['test'] = 'hi there';
}
}
$test = new tester();
echo $_SESSION['test'];
Expected result:
----------------
hi there
