Question

Is there a way to communicate between Zend Modules as stated below?

I want $sVariable to return “bla”. But it gives me

Zend_Controller_Action_Helper_ActionStack Object.

In one module call:

$sVariable = $this->_helper->actionStack('login', 'index', 'user');
echo $sVariable;

And in the other module:

class User_IndexController extends Zend_Controller_Action
{
    public function loginAction()
    {
        return "bla";
    }
}

Answer 1

An option was using Zend_Regsitry. In loginAction() you can do:

Zend_Registry::set('bla', $aUserData['sVariable']);

And to get it back you can do.

$registry = Zend_Registry::getInstance();
echo ($registry['sVariable']);

But it was messy. So i moved what was in my controller action to a helper. That fixed my problems.
