Question

I am new to Symfony 1.4

I have a plugin and inside the modules folder I have payment module, and for this, I have the lib folder and the templates folder. In lib I have the BasePaymentComponents.class.php class and in this class I have some functions called with the prefix executeSometing in this way:

public function executeSometing(sfWebRequest $request)

An for each execute I have a specific template in templates folder. The file structure is like that: _something1.php, _something2.php …

My question is in what moment the executeSometing function from BasePaymentComponents.class.php is actually executed?

I created another template, named _something3.php and set for him the function:

public function executeSometing3(sfWebRequest $request)

actually is not launching the function. Why?

Answer 1

You are using components – you add components to a template – so to execute the Something method in the BasePayment component you would add the following to your template :

<?php include_component('BasePayment', 'something') ?>
