CF Session IDs?
I have an issue with a template that is called through a cfhttp. The problem is, when it errors and we cf_catch it, the session variables are not available to be emailed to me. Does the CF server maintain an ID system for the sessions it is supporting? If so, is it possible to pull that id out within the session? And then, is it possible to use that id outside of that session to refer to that session and its variables?

Re: CF Session IDs?
Lon, Yes, the server automatically produces the CFID and CFToken variables for each user. You do need to code your application.cfm accordingly to take advantage of them. But, if you want to come back and access these variables at a later date, you would be better off setting client variables and store them in a backend database.

RE: CF Session IDs?
We are currently using CFID and CFToken for session management purposes. What I would like to be able to do is to access session variables outside of that session. We have worked a way around this whch requires serializing and then deserializing our 2 main session variables. This requires more overhead and time than I would like to spend. So I am trying to find a shortcut. And I thought if CF uses an internal id system for sessions, we might be able to reference them that way.

RE: CF Session IDs?
:hmm: Why don't you just copy the information into the Application scope, perhaps as a structure based upon the CFID / CFTOKEN combo? Or you could dump the session info into a database. I was under the impression that CF tracks them internally using CFID / CFTOKEN combo, but don't hold me to that.
