- implemented lazy connections that are only opened when a session is used by either passing a dsn string
explicitly or falling back to session.save_path ini setting
- added a createTable method that initializes a correctly defined table depending on the database vendor
2.5.0

2.3.0
-----

* `UploadedFile::isValid` now returns false if the file was not uploaded via HTTP (in a non-test mode)
* Improved error-handling of `\Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Session\Storage\Handler\PdoSessionHandler`
to ensure the supplied PDO handler throws Exceptions on error (as the class expects). Added related test cases
to verify that Exceptions are properly thrown when the PDO queries fail.
2.2.0
-----
* fixed the Request::create() precedence (URI information always take precedence now)
* added Request::getTrustedProxies()
* deprecated Request::isProxyTrusted()
* [BC BREAK] JsonResponse does not turn a top level empty array to an object anymore, use an ArrayObject to enforce objects
* added a IpUtils class to check if an IP belongs to a CIDR
* added Request::getRealMethod() to get the "real" HTTP method (getMethod() returns the "intended" HTTP method)

enable it, and Request::getHttpMethodParameterOverride() to check if it is supported)
* Request::splitHttpAcceptHeader() method is deprecated and will be removed in 2.3
* Deprecated Flashbag::count() and \Countable interface, will be removed in 2.3
2.1.0
-----
* added Request::getSchemeAndHttpHost() and Request::getUserInfo()
* added a fluent interface to the Response class
* added Request::isProxyTrusted()
* added JsonResponse
* added a getTargetUrl method to RedirectResponse
* added support for streamed responses
* made Response::prepare() method the place to enforce HTTP specification
* [BC BREAK] moved management of the locale from the Session class to the Request class
* added a generic access to the PHP built-in filter mechanism: ParameterBag::filter()
* made FileBinaryMimeTypeGuesser command configurable
* added Request::getUser() and Request::getPassword()
* added support for the PATCH method in Request
* removed the ContentTypeMimeTypeGuesser class as it is deprecated and never used on PHP 5.3
* added ResponseHeaderBag::makeDisposition() (implements RFC 6266)
* made mimetype to extension conversion configurable
* [BC BREAK] Moved all session related classes and interfaces into own namespace, as
`Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Session` and renamed classes accordingly.
Session handlers are located in the subnamespace `Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Session\Handler`.
* SessionHandlers must implement `\SessionHandlerInterface` or extend from the
`Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Storage\Handler\NativeSessionHandler` base class.
* Added internal storage driver proxy mechanism for forward compatibility with
PHP 5.4 `\SessionHandler` class.
* Added session handlers for custom Memcache, Memcached and Null session save handlers.
* [BC BREAK] Removed `NativeSessionStorage` and replaced with `NativeFileSessionHandler`.
* [BC BREAK] `SessionStorageInterface` methods removed: `write()`, `read()` and
`remove()`. Added `getBag()`, `registerBag()`. The `NativeSessionStorage` class
is a mediator for the session storage internals including the session handlers
which do the real work of participating in the internal PHP session workflow.
* [BC BREAK] Introduced mock implementations of `SessionStorage` to enable unit
and functional testing without starting real PHP sessions. Removed
`ArraySessionStorage`, and replaced with `MockArraySessionStorage` for unit
tests; removed `FilesystemSessionStorage`, and replaced with`MockFileSessionStorage`
for functional tests. These do not interact with global session ini
configuration values, session functions or `$_SESSION` superglobal. This means
they can be configured directly allowing multiple instances to work without
conflicting in the same PHP process.
* [BC BREAK] Removed the `close()` method from the `Session` class, as this is
now redundant.
* Deprecated the following methods from the Session class: `setFlash()`, `setFlashes()`
`getFlash()`, `hasFlash()`, and `removeFlash()`. Use `getFlashBag()` instead
which returns a `FlashBagInterface`.
* `Session->clear()` now only clears session attributes as before it cleared
flash messages and attributes. `Session->getFlashBag()->all()` clears flashes now.
* Session data is now managed by `SessionBagInterface` to better encapsulate
session data.
* Refactored session attribute and flash messages system to their own
`SessionBagInterface` implementations.
* Added `FlashBag`. Flashes expire when retrieved by `get()` or `all()`. This
implementation is ESI compatible.
* Added `AutoExpireFlashBag` (default) to replicate Symfony 2.0.x auto expire
behavior of messages auto expiring after one page page load. Messages must
be retrieved by `get()` or `all()`.
* Added `Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Attribute\AttributeBag` to replicate
attributes storage behavior from 2.0.x (default).
* Added `Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Attribute\NamespacedAttributeBag` for
namespace session attributes.
* Flash API can stores messages in an array so there may be multiple messages
per flash type. The old `Session` class API remains without BC break as it
will allow single messages as before.
* Added basic session meta-data to the session to record session create time,
last updated time, and the lifetime of the session cookie that was provided
to the client.
* Request::getClientIp() method doesn't take a parameter anymore but bases
itself on the trustProxy parameter.
* Added isMethod() to Request object.
* [BC BREAK] The methods `getPathInfo()`, `getBaseUrl()` and `getBasePath()` of
a `Request` now all return a raw value (vs a urldecoded value before). Any call
to one of these methods must be checked and wrapped in a `rawurldecode()` if
needed.
The Future of Digital Wallets: How Mobile Payments are Shaping the Financial Landscape
Digital wallets have fundamentally transformed how we manage money, offering a streamlined, secure, and highly efficient method for handling payments and transactions. By consolidating credit, debit, and loyalty card information into a single app, digital wallets simplify the payment process and eliminate the need for physical cards, enhancing both convenience and security. As digital wallets evolve, they are integrating advanced features that push the boundaries of traditional payment methods. Biometric authentication, such as fingerprint and facial recognition, adds an extra layer of security, ensuring that only authorized users can access their payment information. Real-time transaction alerts provide instant notifications for every transaction, allowing users to monitor their spending and detect any unauthorized activity swiftly. Budgeting tools within digital wallets offer personalized insights and financial management capabilities, helping users track their expenses and plan their budgets more effectively. The growing adoption of digital wallets is fueled by their ease of use and the increasing demand for contactless payment solutions. As technology advances, digital wallets are likely to incorporate even more innovative features, such as artificial intelligence for personalized financial advice, integrated loyalty programs for seamless rewards management, and cross-border transaction capabilities for global shopping convenience. The integration of these features is reshaping the financial landscape by making transactions not only faster but also more secure and user-friendly. The future of digital wallets is set to further revolutionize how we handle our finances, offering an all-encompassing solution that caters to the evolving needs of modern consumers. As digital wallets continue to advance, they will play an increasingly central role in shaping the future of financial interactions, driving the global shift towards a more digital and cashless economy.
