model not loading :( - El Forum - 06-21-2007

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hi everyone.

I'm having a problem getting a model to load. I'm getting this error:

Code:
A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Notice

Message: Undefined property: User::$load

Filename: controllers/user.php

Line Number: 6

Fatal error: Call to a member function model() on a non-object in C:\dev\xampplite\htdocs\ci\system\application\controllers\user.php on line 6

And here is my Controller

Code:
&lt;?php

class User extends Controller {

    function user()

    {

        $this->load->model('User_model');

        $this->validateLoginStatus();

    }

    ....

Any idea's on why I might be getting this error?

Thanks.
Any idea

Well, it looks like I can't load a model within the constructor.

Is there anyway to have a callback like "beforeFilter" in cakePhp?

Thanks again.

I don't know if you just left it out for brevity, or if you left it out of the actual code, but you need a constructor function that calls the contructor for the "Controller" class - or the global classes won't get attached, eg:

Code:
function User()

    {

        parent::Controller();    

    }
