Cakephp getting session variable in model without using Auth component -

i want session variables in model. im not using auth component. there alternate way ?

thanks binoy

you need use session helper do,

$this->session->write('key','value'); 

but comment states, you'll wanting set variable in model , use session write same value variable in model, rather accessing session in model.

class mymodel extends appmodel{   var $username;   var $password; } 

then in controller use along lines of,

$this->mymodel->username = $this->session->read('user.id'); $this->mymodel->password = $this->session->read('user.password');
