Hi Arosys,

 

Did you get a chance to explore the Cookie Class in Apex which you can utilize to maintain session:

You can use in apex 

Userifno.getSessionId(); to get session id

Scenario is i want to maintain session variable like we do in php,cf etc.

for example like creating a shopping cart.

in which we maintain a session list variable to store information about the products , quantity etc.

for login and guest uesrs.

For that you should use cookies.
