Question

Whenever I create a new action in the zend framework controller using the zf CLI tool it creates the corresponding view file. However, I don’t need the view file for every action in the controller.

If I delete that view file manually will it affect my project.xml file or have any other effect on my project ?

Answer 1

No you don’t need to.

Been a while since i worked with Zend Framework. But if memory serves me well, you have two options here.

1 – $this->_helper->viewRenderer->setNoRender(true);
Which will stop the view being rendered

2- You can simply do what you need to do and call exit() in the end of the of your action.

Hope it helps.

Cheers
