Hi,

You can get all the data in $user variable.
global $user;

Thanks.

thanks for the answer, but global $user will return some value if the user already logged in. while, i'm asking how drupal handle user login? because now i'm developing a module to handle external application logging in to site and drupal helps to return its generated session. and finding out how drupal handle user register, so that i can accomodate external application sending some parameters to my site and registers a new user.

I'm not sure if this will help. But you may get a better idea studying user module and this session function. http://api.drupal.org/api/function/sess_regenerate/5
