Problem with constructor when checking $this->session->userdata() - El Forum - 12-08-2011
[eluser]condoace[/eluser]
I have a controller which I would like to keep private entirely. I have created a condition in the controllers constructor to check if a session exists and then do a redirect. It works fine when there is no session (i.e. does the redirect), but if a session exists it comes up with this error, - also see code:
ERROR
Fatal error: Can't use method return value in write context in C:\Users\ME\xampp\htdocs\ggk\application\models\model_empl.php on line 9
CONTROLLER
Code:
function __construct(){
parent :: __construct();
if(!$this->session->userdata('user_id'))
{
redirect('/login/index/');
}
}
