Zend Session Namespace, get key of defined array

Question

I'm using some Zend_Session_Namespace objects to save some data, most of these data or multidimensional arrays. I have the feeling that I miss a part of the Zend_Session_Namespace logic or I don't use them for what they are supposed to do.

For example I store a cd id with its tracklist as an array.

$session = new Zend_Session_Namespace('cd-track-list');
$session->{123} = array('First Track', 'Second Track');

Afterwards I want to loop the session namespace and I want to know the id of the cd and its tracklist.

foreach($session as $key => $value {
   // $key is 0 -> but should be 123
   // $value is array('First Track', 'Second Track');
}

The $value is correct, but the $key isn't set here. So my question is, how can I get the id of the cd when I loop all cd's?

Thanks in advance.

$session->123 should throw an error?? ints are not allowed there.. — opHASnoNAME, Mar 21 '13 at 12:38

It will not work with your Integer index, it is casted to "0" thats the problem. See "Zend_Session_Namespace.php" (__set)

$name = (string) $name;

You can use:

$session = new Zend_Session_Namespace('cd-track-list');
$session->a = array('First Track', 'Second Track');

foreach($session as $key => $value {
   // $key is 0 -> but should be 123
   // $value is array('First Track', 'Second Track');
}

Thanks, logic answer. I'd better checked the Zend_Session_Namespace setter first! – Tim Mar 21 '13 at 13:16
I'm confused. Doesn't `(string) 123 === '123'`? – ficuscr Mar 21 '13 at 16:03
