Helper and abstract classes
#1

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
I'm pretty new to codeigniter and I'm in the process of converting a old project into CodeIgniter so it can be easily expanded and built upon.

I have an abstract class which defines a load of constants. I then have an array which builds itself calling from the abstract class (though not the classes only use, nor the only data in the array).

I then have the helper which uses the array in its function.

Now the issue. I currently have the class, array and functions all in the helper, however when i call the array inside the functions, its not available (obviously i've used global $array).

I've tried several ways, such as loading the class as a library, the array in a config etc to no avail.

What would be the best way to approach this?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

The best way probably to do this would be to extend the class check out CodeIgniter Base Classes: Keeping it DRY
