zDbSession
==========

[](#zdbsession)

Note: using a mapper for sessions may cause anxiety attacks, panic and chaos. I did it and I confirm the symptoms. You should probably use the raw dbal connection …

However, you may want to avoid using doctrine itself to persist to the db. If you do, you can't use anything in the session until after doctrine has bootstrapped, which is normally later than you might want in the zf2 request handling process.

After many hours of trying to get this to work properly I finally gave up, as mentioned above the main issue that exists is "you can't use anything in the session until after doctrine has bootstrapped" which is rather annoying issue to get by. I will leave the module up for educational purposes only but my other DBSessionStorage module should be used in place of this one.
