<para>
Reads the session data from the session storage, and returns the result back to PHP for internal processing.
This method is called automatically by PHP when a session is started (either automatically or explicitly
with <function>session_start</function> and is preceded by an internal call to the
<function>SessionHandler::open</function>.
</para>
<para>
This method wraps the internal PHP save handler defined in the
<link linkend="ini.session.save-handler">session.save_handler</link> ini setting that was set
before this handler was set by <function>session_set_save_handler</function>.
</para>
<para>
If this class is extended by inheritance, calling the parent <parameter>read</parameter> method will invoke the
wrapper for this method and therefore invoke the associated internal callback. This allows the method to be
overridden and or intercepted and filtered (for example, decrypting the <parameter>$data</parameter> value
returned by the parent <parameter>read</parameter> method).
</para>
<para>
For more information on what this method is expected to do, please refer to the documentation at
<function>SessionHandlerInterface::read</function>.
