Call to protected method CodeIgniter\Language\Language::load() from scope CodeIgniter

Hi,

to load translation-files and create some dynamic content, i add the language service to the _construct of my own library.

Code:

"function __construct(){ ... $this->lang = service('language');" ... }"

Now i want to load a language file by calling my lib inside a view-file in this way

Code:

"$ci->mytools->lang->load(filepath', $ci->mytools->request->getLocale(),true)"

The result is the error message: "Call to protected method CodeIgniter\Language\Language::load() from scope CodeIgniter\View\View"

What i do wrong - how i cann load a language file on each point i want?

No way, this is a system method. You can replace service('language') in Config/Services.php and add the desired methods.

is there no way to load a translation file in a view?

Do you want to load the whole file to be used in a view or are you looking to use language specific strings in your view?
The most obvious way to use a language string is something like this:

PHP Code:

<?= lang('General.Actions') ?>

Where there is an existing file in the Language/en folder with the name 'General.php'.
Content would be:

PHP Code:

<?php

return [
    'Actions'          => 'Actions',
]; 


If this is not what you're looking for, be a bit more specific on what you are trying to achieve.
