+--- Thread: Global access to $session in controlers and modules (/showthread.php?tid=81205)
Global access to $session in controlers and modules - Acuru - 02-03-2022
According to: https://codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/sessions.html
I should be able to initialize i BasicController:
Code:
$session = \Config\Services::session($config);and then use $session whenever i want, but if i am trying to use it in other controllers without problem, but i am getting: Undefined variable: session
I can initialize:
Code:
$this->session = \Config\Services::session();and then use in other controllers: $this->session->. It works fine, but i would preffer to use $session-> (for reasons). I need to initialize it somewhere else or something?

It seems you need to learn PHP's variables and properties.
See
https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.basics.php
https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php
https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.properties.php
But the explanation in the PHP manual is not easy to understand.

Intiallize it in the BaseController then use the session helper $session()->

Sorry, but this is a typical answer that doesn't help anyone.

If a programmer can read and understand the PHP manual, it is the most precise resource.
It helps he/she a lot.
