Future proof use of the WP_Session class

  • Hi, I’m using WP Session in a plugin I’ve published. I’ve heard the WP Session class will eventually be folded into the core. I’d like to future-proof the plugin…is it enough to just check if the WP Session class exists before including the class and the wp_session.php include?

    Will there be problems with WP_SESSION_COOKIE if it is defined to a different value by another script?

    Thanks, love this class, it’s saving me tons of support to folks who cant use PHP Sessions.

    While the end goal is to roll the plugin into core, there isn’t a solid plan to do so at this point. Just always be sure to use an if ( defined() ) check on any constants you’re defining, that way you won’t have conflicts if it’s defined elsewhere.
