1) Easy way:
<cflock scope="session" type="readOnly" timeout=3>
<cfset mySession = duplicate(session)>
</cflock>
However - you said you wanted 'variables' - not just a copy, so version
2...
2)
<cflock scope="session" type="readOnly" timeout=3>
<cfloop item="key" collection="#session#">
<!--- CF5 way --->
<cset "#key#" = session[key]>
<!--- CFMX way --->
<cfset Variables[key] = session[key]>
</cfloop>
Note - this assumes all session keys are valid. If you try this
on CF5 and have session[" kiss my rear"]=1 it will fail.
