Extending CI_Session_files_driver - CiUser - 03-25-2015
Hello, I'd need to extend CI_Session_files_driver class in order to add my own method.
Example:
PHP Code:
class MY_Session_files_driver extends CI_Session_files_driver
{
public function __construct(array $params = array())
{
parent::__construct($params);
}
public function get_data($key)
{
$keys = explode('/', trim($key, "/"));
if (count($keys) > 1) {
return $this->_get_data_desde_ruta($keys);
}
return isset($_SESSION[$key]) ? $_SESSION[$key] : NULL;
}
The extended driver is loaded correctly but the problem is that I can't access to the new method get_data().
PHP Code:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method CI_Session::get_data()
PHP Code:
$this->session
Do you know any way to extend the driver adding new methods?

You need to extend CI_Session, not CI_Session_files_driver.
RE: Extending CI_Session_files_driver - CiUser - 03-26-2015
But, CI_Session is abstract and if I extend from this I'd need to implement all its abstract method.
This is not my aim

CI_Session_driver is abstract. CI_Session is not.

Cool, will try!

I could resolve the problem.
I created a class at /application/libraries/Session/MY_Session.php extendig from CI_Session and added my own methods on it and works fine.
Thanks all for your help!
