You call it as parent::beforeFilter(), not AppController::beforeFilter(). parent is a keyword that refers to the class that some other class extends.
And use parent::beforeFilter() only if the your controller also has a beforeFilter() method. If it does not, AppController's beforeFilter() will be called anyway because Cake will call it on whatever controller the request is using. Because each controller *extends* AppController, the latter's version will be called if there isn't one in this other controller. If you do have a beforeFilter(), you are overriding the parent's (ie. AppController) version. So, in this case, you should make a call to it before any of the other logic. For example: class FoosController extends AppController { /* this method overrides AppController::beforeFilter() */ function beforeFilter() { /* call the parent's version */ parent::beforeFilter(); // other logic here } // etc. } On Thu, Jul 30, 2009 at 5:11 AM, DatacenterHellas<merianosni...@gmail.com> wrote: > > What I done is > > AppController::beforeFilter(); > > Is that incorect ? ? ? > > What is the deference of the parent::beforeFilter(); > > The pr($this) is only for test :) > > Kind regards > Merianos Nikos > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
