session unset / session destroy

[forg4t]

When I logout from the website i checked the static function logout () in the class.user.php after the session unset code there is no session destroy used. Why?

I'm looking forward to your answer

thank you

While I cannot speak for the developers, my guess as to why is that prior to vShare 2.7, vShare used (and required) superglobals. Superglobals cannot be unset using session_destroy(). When vShare 2.7 was done, they likely just went with using just session_unset(), which clears out the values of the variables and never added a session_destroy(), which deletes the variables altogether, since they were already using session_unset() to unset the superglobals.
