No $_SESSION in variables view with Xdebug [message #67367] Fri, 21 March 2008 19:19 Go to next message

Hi,

When debugging with xdebug i see all superglobals in variables view
($_COOKIE, $_ENV, $_FILES, $_GET, $_POST, $_REQUEST, $_SERVER) except
$_SESSION. Everything else is working fine; stepping, showing variable
values with mouseover. A mouseover of $_SESSION in code even shows the
size of the array.

Debugging the same application on the same server with the Notepad++
xdebug client plugin shows the $_SESSION array. So the server component of
xdebug is probably not the cause.

Can anybody reproduce this? Or am I doing something wrong?

Eclipse Version: 3.3.2
Build id: M20080221-1800
PDT: 1.0.2v20080102
Xdebug: php_xdebug-2.0.2-5.2.5.dll
PHP 5.2.5
Apache 2.2.4 (Win32)

Thanks!
Markus Angst

Hi Markus, this is possibly due to a bug in PDT where the superglobals
are not updated once a debug session is established. So if the $_SESSION
information doesn't populate until partly down the script execution then
you won't see the _SESSION variable. You can work around this by adding
$_SESSION to the expressions view and thus watch the variable.

This was fixed in the PDT 1.0x branch a while ago, but I have no idea if
or when another version of PDT 1.0x is going to be released.

I can reproduce this behaviour. Thank you very much for your quick help!
