tt_products 2.7.0+:

$this->basketExt is an array with the uid of the product as an index and 
a second array as the value. The second array has the variant as an 
index and the amount as the value. So you can see which products are in 
the basket and which variants and variants amounts of it.

Only the uid of the product is stored. The variant string is a ';' 
separated list of the selectable variants. The number in it is the index 
of the possible different values of a variant.

Example:
3
Integer 	1;0;;;;;;;; 	2

The first variant is color. So product 3 is in the basket with the 
second of all possible colors and with the first size. The other 
variants are not available for this product. 2 pieces of it are in the 
basket.

No, the basket works even if nobody has logged in.
