Hooks and Classes - do not require method name - El Forum - 09-16-2008

Hello,
I am currently working on writing a pre-system hook and want to use the class'es invoking constructor call as the only item that get executed, IE not defining a method to run as well. The constructor will run everything.
Is there any reason why this function argument is required?
hooks/referral.php
Code:
<?php if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Referral
{
function __construct()
{
echo 'go get um';
}
function test()
{
echo 'test';
}
}
?>config/hooks.php
Code:
// Nope...
$hook['pre_system'] = array(
'class' => 'Referral',
'function' => '',
'filename' => 'referral.php',
'filepath' => 'hooks',
'params' => array()
);
// nope either
$hook['pre_system'] = array(
'class' => 'Referral',
'filename' => 'referral.php',
'filepath' => 'hooks',
'params' => array()
);Both these examples above produce an error.
First: Fatal error: Call to undefined method Referral:
) Second: 'method name must be a string'.
I guess at the very least I could create a returnFalse() method as the default method which will do nothing but return false.
Thoughts?
