This Mod was inspired by the original DB Session by Dready. [b]Last updated on 2 April 2008.[/b]

Created in March 2008, it takes the new version of CodeIgniter's 1.6.1 Session class and combines DB Session with some newly revised functions.

[h3]Improvements include[/h3]

  • Flashdata was not optimised for database storing. The number of queries when using the "flashdata" commands have been reduced significantly.
  • Whenever new data has been stored, a new session_id is assigned to improve security.
  • General improvements that have boosted performance.
  • Object model is exactly the same, so its easy to replace your main existing Session class with this one.

[h3]Changelog[/h3] [h4]Version 1.0[/h4]

  • Initial release

[h3]Final Note[/h3]

There may be some final improvements and they will be logged on this wiki page. Any criticism to help improve this mod is welcome.

[url=http://codeigniter.com/forums/viewthread/75687/]Discussion thread[/url]

[h3]Now for the code... Enjoy.[/h3]
