post_controller_constructor hook not loading $this->session - El Forum - 03-14-2011
[eluser]Webnet[/eluser]
My problem is that I can't access $this->session within my Application controller. Is this functionality not available to the post_controller_constructor hook ?
hooks.php
Code:
$hook['post_controller_constructor'] = array(
array(
'class' => 'application',
'function' => 'preController',
'filename' => 'application.php',
'filepath' => 'controllers'
)
);application.php
Code:
class Application extends Controller {
/*
* The application controls logic which is global to the entire application and not on any specific page.
*/
public function __construct() {
parent::Controller();
$this->load->library('session');
print_r($this->session);
exit;
}

If you're using CI 2.0 it should look like this:
Code:
class Application extends CI_Controller {
/*
* The application controls logic which is global to the entire application and not on any specific page.
*/
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$this->load->library('session');
print_r($this->session);
exit;
}
}What is that hook supposed to be doing? It's looking for a function preController() in application/controllers/application.php which doesn't appear to exist.

The function does exist, I didn't post the whole class because it shouldn't matter, it fails at the constructor.

The below class works, but my original Application controller that's loaded by the hook does not load the session.
Code:
class AbstractController extends Controller {
protected $current_user,
$current_company,
$jsFiles;
/**
* AbstractController Construct
*
* @return AbstractController
*/
public function __construct($skipRedirect = false) {
parent::Controller();
$this->load->library('session');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->load->database();
}Fatal error: Call to a member function userdata() on a non-object in application.php on line 47

your hook class should not be a controller.
try this:
hooks.php
Code:
$hook['post_controller_constructor'] = array(
array(
'class' => 'Application',
'function' => 'preController',
'filename' => 'Application.php',
'filepath' => 'hooks'
)
);application/hooks/application.php
Code:
<?php
class Application {
function preController()
{
$ci =& get_instance();
print_r($ci->session);
}
