Using sessions in loader.php? - El Forum - 09-06-2008

Hello all,
First of all, thanks for the wonderfull framework!
I am still learning the framework, but it works really nice
Now, i got a question. I created my own way to handle language files. I save the language in a session called 'language'.
Now i want that session to be loaded in the loader.php file where the standard language files are autoloaded.
Since languages files are loaded before libraries, I cut the language loading part and placed it right below the libraries loading part.
Code:
// Load all other libraries
foreach ($autoload['libraries'] as $item)
{
$this->library($item);
}
if (isset($autoload['language']) AND count($autoload['language']) > 0)
{
//log_message("DEBUG", "Loading language files...");
$this->language($autoload['language'], 'english');
}'english' should be replaced here with the language session.
I tried something like this:
$language = MY_Session::userdata('language');
But I retrieve an empty / false variable.
But if I am correct, the sessions are already loaded and ready for use.
Any idea what I am doing wrong or any idea how I could fix this? Or am i doing something stupid?
(By the way, i know that their is a standard language thingy around. Which adds something to your URL, but that's not what we want.)

Try putting the code to check for the session and load the language file in a controller, then inherit every other controller from that one.
This also works for things like authorisavion.

Sometimes, things look so difficult but are yet so easy.
Thanks!
