Using Zend Framework components in CI

[eluser]mihailt[/eluser]
probably a slightly change would improve it

Code:

<?php if (!defined('BASEPATH')) {exit('No direct script access allowed');}

/**
* Zend Framework Loader
*
* Put the 'Zend' folder (unpacked from the Zend Framework package, under 'Library')
* in CI installation's 'application/libraries' folder
* You can put it elsewhere but remember to alter the script accordingly
*
* Usage:
*   1) $this->load->library('zend', 'Zend/Package/Name');
*   or
*   2) $this->load->library('zend');
*      then $this->zend->load('Zend/Package/Name');
*
* * the second usage is useful for autoloading the Zend Framework library
* * Zend/Package/Name does not need the '.php' at the end

    function __construct($class = NULL)
    {
        // include path for Zend Framework
