This?

$ grep --text "Open Projects" ~/.local/share/kdevelop/sessions/*/sessionrc
/home/kfunk/.local/share/kdevelop/sessions/{e48ea374-1e6c-4c58-ba8f-
ad66ebd2d40e}/sessionrc:Open Projects=file:///home/kfunk/devel/src/kdab/iDev/
iDev.kdev4
/home/kfunk/.local/share/kdevelop/sessions/{e7169c72-542e-43db-
ab7d-923f7cb0d500}/sessionrc:Open Projects=file:///home/kfunk/devel/src/kf5/
kdevelop-pg-qt/kdevelop-pg-qt.kdev4,file:///home/kfunk/devel/src/kf5/
kdevplatform-stable/kdevplatform-stable.kdev4,file:///home/kfunk/devel/src/
kf5/kdevelop-stable/kdevelop-stable.kdev4,file:///home/kfunk/devel/src/kf5/
kdev-php-stable/kdev-php-stable.kdev4

Maps from session id to open projects. The cache dir is just "cache base dir + 
session id"
