hi, i''m wondering if anyone knows a simple way to grab all the active session objects in a system. i''m adding a messaging component to our app and i want to enable users who are online to see when they''ve been messaged -- messages are associated with users, so basically what i want to do is go through the sessions, find the one for a specific user, and reload it when they''ve received a message. i''m using rails'' default filesystem-based sessions. i found this post that describes something similar, but it requires changing to db-stored sessions, which i''d rather not do: http://habtm.com/articles/2005/12/15/whos-online aren''t sessions held in memory somewhere? is there any simple way to just get them from memeory, rather than the filesystem or db? john ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
