Smarty

[gerard]

Just wondering if/when this will be implemented:

$smarty->register_function("date_now", array($obj, "print_current_date"));

Thx

[messju]

it's already done in the cvs-version of smarty. see http://smarty.php.net/download.php on how to get it

[gerard]

Any idea when the next version of Smarty will be released?

[messju]

when performance of the cvs-version is bettor-or-equal (hopefully better, of course) than the one of 2.5.0 there will be a release candidate. things may change under the hood after that, but no new features should appear or vanish after the rc until the next version is stable and final.

i don't know when this will be regarding absolute time measures.

Sorry guys, its getting late and im wrestling with a problem...i've written a CMS - and now i've come to the point of needing module support, i've decided to go with the "each module is a class" approach, and have serialised GET vars for them and everything, and to control, how and where they appear - im going with smarty function calls stored in a mySQL databsae, in the order they are to be used...OK so far - my problem comes of course when i realise that i need to somehow register a member function from a class into smarty, and ............... well it dosent want to let me!!

heres my plugin loader code:
[php:1:4f6635fdfc]<?php
$plugin_dir = opendir($dir['plugin_dir']);
while( false != ($file = readdir($plugin_dir)) ){
if($file != '.' && $file != '..'){
include_once($dir['plugin_dir'] . $file);
$parts = explode('.', $file);
if($parts[0] == 'plugin'){
$$parts[1] = &new $parts[1];
/*
$_SESSION['plugins'][$parts[1]] = $$parts[1];
$_SESSION['plugins'][$parts[1]]->init();
$_SESSION['plugins'][$parts[1]]->cms = &$cms;
*/
$cms->register_function($parts[1] . '_init', $$parts[1]->init()); $cms->register_function($parts[1] . '_display', $$parts[1]->display());
/* print_r($cms); */
}
}
}
?>[/php:1:4f6635fdfc]

and one of the example plugins from the plugins dir:

[php:1:4f6635fdfc]<?php
class error_mod{

var $local_var = "foo";
var $cms;

function error_mod(){
#echo "Error Module Loaded Correctly.<br />";
}
function init(){
$echo .= $_html_code[OpenTable0];
$echo .= $_html_code[OpenRow];
$echo .= $_html_code[OpenHeaderCell];
$echo .= "Error Mod Plugin.";
$echo .= $_html_code[CloseCell];
$echo .= $_html_code[CloseRow];
$echo .= $_html_code[OpenRow];
$echo .= $_html_code[OpenDataCell];
$echo .= "Some Data here, like your IP address, " . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$echo .= $_html_code[CloseCell];
$echo .= $_html_code[CloseRow];
$echo .= $_html_code[CloseTable];
return $echo;
}
}
?>[/php:1:4f6635fdfc]

maybe im doing something wrong in my $cms->register_function, maybe its smarty...but it seems that this page is talking about my problem...maybe i missed the point - any help would be GREATLY appreciated....thanks in advance
