-===== Session Cookie Regeneration ===== 
  
-The method ''adodb_session_regenerate_id()'' will dynamically change the current session id with a newly generated one and update database. This currently only works with cookies. Useful to improve security by reducing the risk of session-hijacking. See this article on Session Fixation for more info on the theory behind this feature.  
  
-==== Usage ==== 
- 
-<code php> 
-include 'adodb/adodb-session2.php'; 
- 
-session_start(); 
-/* 
-* Approximately every 10 page loads, reset cookie for safety. 
-* This is extremely simplistic example, better 
-* to regenerate only when the user logs in or changes 
-* user privilege levels. 
-*/ 
-if ((rand()%10) == 0)  
-    adodb_session_regenerate_id(); 
-</code> 
- 
-This function calls ''session_regenerate_id()'' internally or simulates it if the function does not exist. 
- 
-===== Vacuum/Optimize Database ===== 
- 
-During session garbage collection, if postgresql is detected, ADOdb can be set to run VACUUM. If mysql is detected, then optimize database could be called.You can turn this on or off using: 
-<code php> 
-$turnOn = true; # or false 
-ADODB_Session::optimize($turnOn); 
-</code> 
-The default is optimization is disabled.
