Modular Extensions 4.3 is available on the wiki

Version 4.3 has been updated and now should work with CI 1.7.1

Please provide feedback if you find otherwise.

When i work with multiple databases the application breaks. It worked before. What could be the problem?

[eluser]wiredesignz[/eluser]
edwin,

Can you provide a bit more detail please. Where does the application fail, errors, line numbers etc

It's difficult to find bugs without relevant information.

[eluser]edwin87[/eluser]
That's true!

I've created a base_controller. This handles basic functions. Like choose language and that sort of stuff.

For example:

Code:

<?php
class Base_controller extends Controller{

  var $data     =     array();    // Array om data op te slaan.
  var $aTalen     =     array();    // Array met talen
  var $wdb         =     FALSE;         // Website Database
  var $cdb         =     FALSE;         // CMS Database

function Base_controller()
    {

        
        ob_start();
         session_start();

        // Controller meeladen
        parent::Controller();
        
        $this->wdb = $this->load->database("website", true);
        $this->cdb = $this->load->database("cms", true);
        
        $this->load->model('main_model');
        $this->load->model('front_page_model');
            
    } // End function
  
}// End class
?>

On every module i include my base_controller and extend it like : news extends base_controller

So this time i don't have to load everytime my database.

Code:

$WEBDB = $this->load->database('website', TRUE);
$WEBDB->get('news');

With the defined vars in the base controller i only needed to do this:

Code:

$this->wdb->get('news');

So the vars in my base_controller are broken now.

Is there a way to fix this?

In 4.2 it did worked.

[eluser]edwin87[/eluser]
I hope i made myself clear. I also found out that the function database with $parameter didn't get a array like 4.2

Maybe this is a problem?

[eluser]wiredesignz[/eluser]
Modular Extensions 4.3.03 is available on the wiki

Updated to fix database loading and compared functionality against CI 1.7.1 on its own.

[eluser]edwin87[/eluser]
Thanks for your update!

But do you maybe have a solution for a base_controller? So that i don't have to do things multiple?

Like language selection like ChickenEggs in this thread?
http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/73177/P520/

It's strange because it worked in 4.2
So i can't set vars anymore.




I hope you can help me with this


Edit:

I found out that it breaks in a model. In controllers it works. But i want to load as example : $this->wdb->get('pages'); in a model function.

But he gives a "Call to a member function on a non-object ". So he can't find the wdb var.

[eluser]wiredesignz[/eluser]
Try moving the database connections into the models that require them rather than loading them in the controller.

[eluser]edwin87[/eluser]
Hello,
Thanks, that worked
But i liked it more like i did it before. I never had to load it again. However it works now


But I found another bug.

I've got a photo module.

Here i load 3 models.

- fotoalbum_album_model
- fotoalbum_pics_model
- fotoalbum_category_model

I've got a function in the fotoalbum_category_model for example:

Code:

function get_FriendlyCatTitle($id)
{
return url_title($id);
}

I try to call that function in my fotoalbum_album_model.

Example:

Code:

function get_Photo_Item($id)
{
  $items = NULL;
  $items .= 'Blabla<BR>';
  $items .= $this->fotoalbum_category_model->get_FriendlyCatTitle('Loll this is a friendly photo item');

return $items;
}

Then it gives me a error like:

Call to a member function on a non-object

It seems that it doesn't load the model so i tried to load the model again inside the model But then it returns that the model already is loaded.

Shows me that it is loaded. So what could be the problem here?
