Re: [fw-mvc] Proper use of Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource

Hmmm,

I noticed one potential problem with autoloader. It might my fault anyway...

Seems i can't load some non Zend classes from library now after i switched to Resource autoloader.

index.php:
    set_include_path(
        BASE_PATH . '/library/dasprid' . PATH_SEPARATOR
        .BASE_PATH . '/library/incubator' . PATH_SEPARATOR
        .BASE_PATH . '/library' . PATH_SEPARATOR
        . get_include_path()
    );

Bootstrap:

        require 'Zend/Loader/Autoloader.php';
        require 'Zend/Loader/Autoloader/Resource.php';
       
        $loader = new Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource(array(
             'namespace' => 'Default_',
             'basePath'  => MODULE_PATH
        ));
       
        $loader->addResourceType('Model', 'models', 'Model');
       //i used resource autoloader since i would add also forms, filters, aso
       .................................................
        $acl = new Imagis_Acl($auth);
       //class Imagis_ACL is obviously into library/Imagis   (class Imagis_Acl extends Zend_Acl)


But... I am receiving this:


Fatal error: Class 'Imagis_Acl' not found in D:\_Work\site\application\Bootstrap.php on line 174

Not sure, might be my fault...

Thanks for reply, my code works now... :)  One more question. How should i make the system automatically recognize all my modules ?     

I know this is also related to Zend_Application prepared by Dasprid, i am wondering if this is possible (using just autoloader) until his component is released (is not moved to incubator now).     

 Loop through your modules, and instantiate an autoloader for each:      $loaders = array();     foreach ($front->getControllerDirectory() as $module => $dir) {         $loaders[$module] = new Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader(array(             'namespace' => ucfirst($module),             'basePath'  => dirname($dir),         ));     }  You can also grab Zend_Application from svn:      http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/standard/branches/dasprid/Zend_Application  BTW, Zend_Application is being hacked on by more than just DASPRiD -- if you have ideas or feedback, please feel free to comment.

One         of them is Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource.          I made a sample for a modular archtecture. I am trying as a demonstration to         load a Plugins model from /application/modules/default/models          That's into application/Bootstrap.php:                  Zend_Loader::registerAutoload();                  $autoloader = new Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource(                     array(                     'namespace'   => 'Default',                     'basePath' => MODULE_PATH                     )                 );                  $autoloader->addResourceTypes(array(                         'Model' => array('path' => 'models', 'namespace' => 'Model'),                         'DbTable'  => array('path' => 'models/DbTable', 'namespace' =>         'DbTable')                 ));       Okay, two things here. First, if you're going to use the Resource     autoloader, don't uses Zend_Loader::registerAutoload(); use     Zend_Loader_Autoloader -- and the latter is implicit when you     instantiate the resource autoloader.      Second, based on the resource types you're defining, you probably want     to use the Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader variant, as it has all of     the resources you indicated above defined already.      In the end, it would look like this:          $autoloader = new Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader(array(             'namespace' => 'Default_',             'basePath'  => MODULE_PATH,         ));      and that's it.            Into a controller plugin in am making use of resource autoloader this way:          $plugins = new Default_Model_Plugins();           Now here are my questions:         1. Why i am receiving this error:          Warning: include(D:\_Work\site/application/modules/models//Plugins.php) [         function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in D:\_Work         \site\library\incubator\Zend\Loader\Autoloader\Resource.php on line 173          I am not sure why is not included the "default" into path... Or anyway, what i         am missing ?       First, getting rid of the Zend_Loader::registerAutoload() will likely     take care of this. Second, use Zend_Loader from current trunk, as it has     a few changes that make it work better with autoloading.            2. There is any other error ? Like namespace been 'namespace'   => 'Default'         or  'namespace'   => 'Default_', as according to sample from incubator file         ('namespace' => 'Stuff_').       I need to change that in the docblock -- no '_' suffix necessary with     resource autoloaders. The reason is that with resource autoloading,     we're making an assumption that the classes follow ZF coding standards     -- so the '_' is implied. (Zend_Loader_Autoloader, however, does require     the explicit '_' so that we can allow interop with autoloaders from     projects that do not follow the same conventions).            3. How should be the class name of the model ? Plugins ? Or Default_Plugins ?         or Default_Model_Plugins ?       Default_Model_Plugins. Rule of thumb: the namespace you use is the first     segment, the resource type is the second segment, and then the class     name is the last.      /me makes a note to write documentation soon!      -- Best regards, Cristian Bichis www.zftutorials.com | www.zfforums.com | www.zftalk.com | www.zflinks.com
