\FOFAutoloaderComponent

An autoloader for FOF-powered components. It allows the autoloading of various classes related to the operation of a component, from Controllers and Models to Helpers and Fields. If a class doesn't exist, it will be created on the fly.

Members

protected

• $fofComponents — array
  An array holding component names and their FOF-ness status

public

• $autoloader — FOFAutoloaderComponent
  An instance of this autoloader
• $fofPath — string
  The path to the FOF root directory

Methods

private

• class_alias() — Creates class aliases. On systems where eval() is enabled it creates a real class. On other systems it merely creates an alias. The eval() method is preferred as class_aliases result in the name of the class being instanciated not being available, making it impossible to create a class instance without passing a $config array :(

public

• __construct() — Public constructor. Registers the autoloader with PHP.
• autoload_fof_controller() — Autoload Controllers
• autoload_fof_field() — Autoload Fields
• autoload_fof_helper() — Autoload Helpers
• autoload_fof_model() — Autoload Models
• autoload_fof_table() — Autoload Tables
• autoload_fof_toolbar() — Autoload Toolbars
• autoload_fof_view() — Autoload Views
• init() — Initialise this autoloader
• isFOFComponent() — Returns true if this is a FOF-powered component, i.e. if it has a fof.xml file in its main directory.
