Help with module loading under Php4.

Hi,

I've been using CI for a few months now and I have loved every minute of it. I just started using version 1.5.4 (was using 1.5.3) and I now have a problem with a module. The module gets loaded but any attempt to access module class members results in a "call member function on a non-object" error. The funny thing is that the error does not occur under php5 only on php4. The module uses the ci db class, active record class, and a couple of php functions ucfirst, and strtolower. I have checked the Php docs on Php.net to insure the php functions are all php4 compliant. I use wamp for development and switching to php5 causes the module to load and function correctly. Switching to php4 causes the error.

I have tried loading modules in various orders but nothing solved the issue. I am loading ci libnraries, then ci helpers, them my module. This is what I usually do. I have even re-installed ci...

Any ideas on what might cuase this?

does your code contain any of the php4 reserved words, like view for example?
there is a list of php4 reserved words on the controllers documentation page in the CI docs.

Hi thanks for the quick response. I am using the terms 'amodel', 'auto_model', and 'amodel_id' in my model class as the class is used for searching an automotive parts db. Can this be the issue. I understand that php4 does not have good support for namespace however, I expected that these terms for variables would be ok?..

I do also use the term 'model' in db queries and quoted strings. Could this be the issue?

Thanks for your help.

not sure, I havn't used php4... another issue I found searching through the forums 'php4 error', is you cannot do object iterations.

Changing all my quoted string and commented 'model' to 'amodel' and 'AutoModel' solved the issue...

Thanks for the heads up!
