[Solved] Unsetting Session In Array

In my admin session i can unset the session like below

PHP Code:

<?php

class Logout extends CI_Controller {

public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
}

public function index() {
$admin_session_data = $this->session->userdata('admin');

unset($admin_session_data['is_logged']);

$this->session->unset_userdata('admin', $admin_session_data['is_logged']);

redirect(base_url('admin/common/login'));
}
} 


In my controller I set the admin session like

PHP Code:

<?php

class Login extends CI_Controller {

public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
}

public function index() {
$this->session->set_userdata('admin', array('is_logged' => TRUE));

echo anchor('admin/common/logout', 'Logout');
}
} 


On the logout controller what is the better way of unsetting the session in array I will be adding more in set session later.

There's only one rule - please don't tell anyone to go and read the manual.  Sometimes the manual just SUCKS!

Personally I always access the session variable directly.

PHP Code:

// set session item
$_SESSION['is_admin'] = TRUE;

// unset session item
unset($_SESSION['is_admin']); 


Or for an array:

PHP Code:

// set session item array
$_SESSION['is_admin'] = array('is_logged'=>TRUE, 'is_admin'=>TRUE);

// unset session item array element
unset($_SESSION['is_admin']['is_logged']); 


I think the set_userdata methods are deprecated now.

Also, the unset userdata, I think, can only unset an entire key, not an element inside an array stored in the key.

Whatever it is, accessing the session variable is IMHO cleaner, easier, more concise and more direct.

Best wishes,
