Issue with Validation library

[eluser]gon[/eluser]
What I do is extending Validation library by putting this code in a file called MY_Library, in application/libraries

Only works for PHP5:

Code:

class MY_Validation extends CI_Validation {    
   function __get($name) {
      return isset($this->$name) ? $this->$name : null;
   }
}

You can then write $this->validation->whatever, and $this->validation->whatever_error even if validation hasn't been run.
