Sharing sessions between concrete5 and codeigniter?

Question

I have installed Concrete5 in http://www.example.com/concrete5/ and Codeigniter in http://www.example.com/codeigniter. Is it possible to use the Concrete5 session in the Codeigniter directory? If this is possible, can someone give me a hint how to do it? Thanks.

edit: additional information: They are on the same server, but in different folders :) Each works as it should. But now I need the user object of concrete5 in my codeigniter application.

Answer 1

Sharing sessions between these two isn't possible. In my opinion cookies should be the best solution.

Answer 2

You'll have to create a wrapper / converter.

Luckily, it should be much easier to write this for codeigniter (to read concrete5) than concrete5 (to read codeigniter). But it won't be at all trivial.
