Re: [fw-mvc] Default View Helper

That's a good point.. However, the view object uses its own plugin loader instance for loading helpers and filters. I'm not sure why it doesn't try the autoloader first.

Ok. I'm confused now. Shouldn't the autoloader be doing this? (see the _initAutoload function from my default bootstrap below)

You're not passing any options to your view resource, meaning it won't know of any custom view helper paths. Update that line in the config to look like this:

resources.view.helperPath.Default_View_Helper = APPLICATION_PATH "/views/helpers"

Hi all,

I have a very odd issue. I've set up an application with different modules. As read in the docs, my main Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap while the other module bootstraps extend Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap.

My application.ini (related to modules) looks like this:

resources.frontController.controllerDirectory = APPLICATION_PATH "/modules/default/controllers"

resources.frontController.moduledirectory = APPLICATION_PATH "/modules"

resources.frontController.defaultmodule = "default"

resources.frontController.throwerrors = true

resources.frontController.params.prefixDefaultModule = true

resources.view[] = 

resources.modules =

Models, View Helpers, etc... are loaded correctly in the non-default modules. In the default module, I added an _initAutoload function like below:

protected function _initAutoload()

{

    $autoloader = new Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader(array(

        'namespace' => 'Default',

        'basePath'  => dirname(__FILE__),

    ));

    return $autoloader;

}

This causes my models to be loaded correctly (i.e. Default_Model_User), but my default view helpers aren't. An example:

class Default_View_Helper_Test extends Zend_View_Helper_Abstract

{

    public function test()

    {

        return "<p>DEFAULT::TEST</p>";

    }

}

When I try to use it in my view template or layout template I get:

Plugin by name 'Test' was not found in the registry; used paths:

Zend_Dojo_View_Helper_: Zend/Dojo/View/Helper/:Zend/Dojo/View/Helper/

Zend_View_Helper_: Zend/View/Helper/:/var/www/amazium/application/modules/default/views/helpers/

I noticed in the error above that my view helper path was added correctly, but for some reason the prefix it has there is Zend_View_Helper_.

So, am I doing something wrong to get my default view helpers to work? Or is this a bug?

Thanks in advance,
