Description:
------------
Actually I'm talking about beta2 of PHP5, but it wasn't listed.

I think the __destruct() method should do things like cleaning up any resources. So it would be nice if I could destroy Sessions which are empty. But the Session Handler for closing the Session is called before the __destruct() methods.

Reproduce code:
---------------
class Bug {

    private $i = 0;

    public function __construct() {
        session_start();
        if ( isset( $_SESSION['i'] ) ) {
            $this->i = $_SESSION['i'];
        }
        $this->i ++;
        $_SESSION['i'] = $this->i;
    }

    public function printLink() {
        echo '<a href="/?' . SID . '">Bug</a>: ' . $this->i;
    }

    public function __destruct() {
        if ( $this->i > 4 ) {
            session_destroy();
        }
    }

}

$bug = new Bug();
$bug->printLink();

Expected result:
----------------
I would expect that the Session is still active and can be manipulated in any __destruct() method.

Actual result:
--------------
PHP's Session Handler for closing the Session is called before any __destruct method. So I can't do anything with the Session in the __destruct method.

I think you can still call session_destroy() or any other session functions using register_shutdown_function(). You even can work around that with hidden iframes, if you want to destroy a class before the main php end, but I think this is not the case you are looking for.

I verified with following script. Session module is PHP_SESSION_NONE status 
after session_destroy().


<?php

class Bug {

    private $i = 0;

    public function __construct() {
        session_start();
        if ( isset( $_SESSION['i'] ) ) {
            $this->i = $_SESSION['i'];
        }
        $this->i ++;
        $_SESSION['i'] = $this->i;
    }

    public function printLink() {
        echo '<a href="/?' . SID . '">Bug</a>: ' . $this->i . PHP_EOL;
    }

    public function __destruct() {
		session_destroy();
		echo 'destruct'.PHP_EOL;
    }

}

$bug1 = new Bug();
$bug2 = new Bug();
$bug1->printLink();

unset($bug1);

var_dump(session_status());
