Rather silly question - extending core library - rtofnt - 06-12-2018
Hi everyone,
I tho up to now I know codeigniter very well ... well - I don't.
I have some CMS system build using CI2.0 + DataMapper (I know, I know - but I'm just employee) and trying to add some function to Upload library, so I can do:
PHP Code:
$this->upload->something($some_data);
however adding in core folder MY_Upload that extends CI_Upload, throws an error.
Is it possible in CI to extend Upload this way ?
Thanks - Matt.

Have a look at this:

Are you adding MY_Upload.php to /application/core/ or to system/core/?
It should be the former. Also check config.php and confirm that
PHP Code:
$config['subclass_prefix'] = 'MY_;

The upload class isn't a core file. It doesn't belong in core, it belongs in libraries.

Well, ya. There is that.
