Hey guys,
I am in the middle of writing an authentication library, and I have a config file set up for it. The only problem I have is that I don't know how to access the variables. I've seen on the forum people mentioning about an initialize() function, do I need one? What does it need to do?
I have also seen in the Loader.php file...
Code:
function _ci_init_class($class, $prefix = '', $config = FALSE)
{
$class = strtolower($class);
// Is there an associated config file for this class?
if ($config === NULL)
{
if (file_exists(APPPATH.'config/'.$class.EXT))
{
include_once(APPPATH.'config/'.$class.EXT);
}
}
if ($prefix == '')
{
$name = (class_exists('CI_'.$class)) ? 'CI_'.$class : $class;
}
else
{
$name = $prefix.$class;
}
// Set the variable name we will assign the class to
$classvar = ( ! isset($this->_ci_varmap[$class])) ? $class : $this->_ci_varmap[$class];
// Instantiate the class
$CI =& get_instance();
if ($config !== NULL)
{
$CI->$classvar = new $name($config);
}
else
{
$CI->$classvar = new $name;
}
}
I guess from that I don't need to load the config file...but how would I access the config items in there?
I'm new to writing libraries, so if this sounds really dopey, it's just because I'm starting out
Thanks!
