Description
int
session_cache_expire ( [int new_cache_expire] )
session_cache_expire() returns the current setting of
session.cache_expire. The value returned should be read
in minutes, defaults to 180. If new_cache_expire
is given, the current cache expire is replaced with
new_cache_expire.
The cache expire is reset to the default value of 180 stored in
session.cache_limiter at request startup time. Thus,
you need to call session_cache_expire() for every
request (and before session_start() is called).
Example 1. session_cache_expire() example <?php
/* set the cache limiter to 'private' */
session_cache_limiter('private');
$cache_limiter = session_cache_limiter();
/* set the cache expire to 30 minutes */
session_cache_expire(30);
$cache_expire = session_cache_expire();
/* start the session */
session_start();
echo "The cache limiter is now set to $cache_limiter<br />";
echo "The cached session pages expire after $cache_expire minutes";
?> |

Note:
Setting new_cache_expire is of value only, if
session.cache_limiter is set to a value
different from nocache.
