Symfony 1.4: Storing an array in session with SetAttribute

Tom picture Tom · Apr 17, 2010 · Viewed 8.7k times · Source

I'm wondering if someone knows how to store an array into a user session?

This is the method to store a single attribute:

$this->getUser()->setAttribute('something', $something);

And the documentation says:

"User attributes can store any type of data (strings, arrays, and associative arrays)"

... but doesn't say anything more. The API documentation doesn't have a "SetAttributes" or something similarly obvious.

Thank you.

Uh, as I'd written the question out, it became obvious:

$something = array();

$this->getUser()->setAttribute('something', $something);

Resolved.
