Zend Framework 1.8 tutorial 4 zend_auth and zend_form part 3

[willzurmacht]

I love these tutorials and you explain them very well :)

Wouldn't it be a better practice to write the AuthInstance as follows:

$auth = Zend_Auth::getInstance(); if($auth->hasIdentity()) { // redirect } // show form / check form submission

It make the code cleaner and more readable. While you are technically correct, Zend_Auth will only be referenced once, wouldn't it be better practice to only put one reference to it?

Ok Solution for

Fatal error: Class 'Form_LoginForm' not found in Z:\PHP\xampp\xampp\htdocs\zend­­framework\Test\application\co­n­trollers\AuthenticationContr­ol­ler.php

Please check ur folder is named as 'forms' instead of form in application directory.

@07105006 that can be so many things... for starters check your namespace. Check either your bootstrap or config.ini or directive appnamespace = ""

Zend_Controller_Front::getInst­ance()->getBaseUrl() returns to nothing. How can I fix it.

Im using Ubuntu 10.04 and ZF 1.10

Can you write an update for

$identity = $authAdapter->getResultRowObje­ct();

$authStorage = $auth->getStorage();

$authStorage->write($identity)­;

for 1.10 because it login but it don't save sassion

and i have the code in bootstrap ..

What can it be?

[xdyex]

Sorry! My mistake

Excelent tutorials! Thank you!

Some how my application cant seem to find the form. it simply returns me the error:

Fatal error: Class 'Form_LoginForm' not found in Z:\PHP\xampp\xampp\htdocs\zend­framework\Test\application\con­trollers\AuthenticationControl­ler.php on line 18

I've been following this, but for some reason my form will not appear.

[medthompson]

is because in the video he never talk about Bootstrap.php just add code below and put an invalid password in your controller: protected function _initAutoload() { $moduleLoader = new Zend_Application_Module_Autolo­ader(array(  'namespace' => '', 'basePath' => APPLICATION_PATH)); return $moduleLoader; }

@medthompson thanks, it works now :)

[christinio]

why do you pass a boolean to setRequired once and once not?

[integral30]

To illustrate how zend validator works; in this example what happens if user does not enter a value in the field that is set to setRequired.

[christinio]

Erm but the result of

setRequired() and setRequired(true) in this clip is the same, isn't it? is there a difference?

[integral30]

Oh so thats what you ment, Sorry.

Yes, there is no difference. The default parameter for setRequired is always true so setRequired() and setRequried(true) is the same. setRequired(false) would then be equivalent of not having setRequired at all.

I should have been consistent to avoid confusion.

[christinio]

Thanks for clearing that up for me in a fast reply :)

And many thanks for the tutorials, they're awesome!
