I need to override an abstract Block in Magento : app/code/core/Mage/Eav/Block/Adminhtml/Attribute/Edit/Options/Abstract.php

I need to add a function to this class similar as getOptionValues for a specific product type.

I tried to override by adding the same structure (folder creations and copy the Abstract.php file) in app/code/local/Mage/Eav/Block/Adminhtml/Attribute/Edit/Options/Abstract.php, but it seems not working.

Anyone can help me ?
Am I missing something ?
Do I need to create app/etc/modules XML or the app/code/local/Mage/Eav/etc XML ?

Thanks a lot !

    In order to override the app/code/core/Mage/Eav/Block/Adminhtml/Attribute/Edit/Options/Abstract.php

    abstract class, you need to place the file as: app/code/local/Mage/Eav/Block/Adminhtml/Attribute/Edit/Options/Abstract.php
    which means your local pool path for Abstract.php is correct.

    The only thing that i doubt why it’s not loading is:
    may be Compiler is enabled for your store(be sure to check from System > Tools > Compilation > Status should be Disabled).

    Additionally check your log files(var/log/*.log) if there are any errors.

    I would refer the following article for configuring your magento for development / debug mode:

    Hope this helps a bit.
    Regards
