Reopening a session in PHP

问题

How do I reopen a session in PHP without getting header already sent warnings?

After setting all the session vars I like to set, I close the session with session_write_close(). I do this, because as long as the session is open, there may be only one active connection from the same client. But I like to have multiple parallel ones.

However if I like to set another session variable at a later point, I need to reopen the session with session_start() once again. This works, but as I already send code to the client it prints "headers already sent"-warnings. Why is it trying to set the cookie again? The cookie is already set. Only thing I need is to gain access to writing the session files on the server again.

Well, I can suppress them. But is there a way of reopening a session, that has been closed with session_write_close without re-sending the Cookie-header? The Cookie-header is already sent correctly by the first session_start(). So the second one just needs to give me back access to writing to the session files stored on the web server.

<?php
session_start();
// setting all the session vars I like to set
session_write_close(); // <-- // To allow parallel requests by the same user, while this script is still running

// Code that takes some time to execute
// It also prints output, so no more cookie headers after this point

@session_start(); // <-- works, but I like to use it without suppressing warnings
$_SESSION['key'] = 'new value I like to store';
session_write_close();
?>

回答1:

session_start();
...
session_write_close();
...

ini_set('session.use_only_cookies', false);
ini_set('session.use_cookies', false);
ini_set('session.use_trans_sid', false);
ini_set('session.cache_limiter', null);
session_start(); // second session_start

This will prevent php from calling php_session_send_cookie() a second time.
See it working.

Though restructuring the scripts still seems to be the better option...

EDIT See @VolkerK's solution, it is better than this one.

Just buffer the output of your script while it executes to prevent the headers from being sent, and output it at the very end:

<?php

  session_start();
  // setting all the session vars I like to set
  session_write_close();

  // Start output buffer
  ob_start();

  // Code that takes some time to execute

  // Do session stuff at the end of the script
  session_start();
  $_SESSION['key'] = 'new value I like to store';
  session_write_close();

  // Send output to client
  ob_end_flush();
