Re: Loading components inside components and keeping the initialize() stack order
Because the SecondaryComponent::specialMethod() method is proper to
the SecondaryComponent, I don't want to put code in MainComponent that
should be be in SecondaryComponent. I would like to keep all code
relating to SecondaryComponent inside SecondaryComponent.

Why don't you just place the specialMethod() code into initialize()?
Since thats basically what you are trying to achieve.

Hello,
I'm writing a MainComponent that will need a SecondaryComponent in

I want to call some of SecondaryComponent::specialMethod() in

if SecondaryComponent::initialize() is itself called first.
Diving into code-land, here is what I mean.
class FoosController extends AppController {
var $components = array('MainComponent);
}
class MainComponent extends Object {
var $components = array('SecondaryComponent');
function initialize($controller, $options) {
$this-SecondaryComponent-specialMethod();
}
}
class SecondaryComponent extends Object {
function initialize($controller, $options) {
// Some really important stuff must go here
}
function specialMethod() {
// This method can't work properly if the initialize()
method hasn't
be fired first
}
}
I expected the stack order to call SecondaryComponent::initialize()
then MainComponent::initialize() but it appears to call
MainComponent::initialize() and then SecondaryComponent::initialize(),
causing SecondaryComponent::specialMethod() to fail.
I fixed it by manually calling $this-SecondaryComponent-initialize() in
MainComponent::initialize(), but I still wonder if
there would be a more cakish way of doing that.
I'm not sure if this behavior is a bug, a design decision, an
ommission or simply a wrong approach of myself.
Has anyone some insight of this ?

Why don't you just place the specialMethod() code into initialize()?
