Hi friends!
I started to learn CodeIgniter few days ago, and first library that I plugged in was Community Auth.
The way in which this library serves Authentication functions is a little bit confusing me. I expect something like that: if I once plug-in third library, their functions and methods will be available everywhere at the application (means in each Controller). Instead of this, how I learned, Authentication functions will be available to use only when extending from MY_Controller (from Community Auth).
But what will be if I need to use another third-library with another ancestor class? For example in C++ it is possible to use Multiple inheritance (which is however not good style of coding), but this is not possible in PHP.
Therefore I have question:
Whether I necessarily need to extend my controller from MY_Controller to use (for example) "is_logged_in" function ?
Sorry, if I missed something important in guideness, please correct me.
Thanks in advance.
