I think I've narrowed down the problem if not the solution. Looking
through i18n.php I noticed that the getInstance() method checks the
session, but only if the language is not found in the core config.
function &getInstance() {
static $instance = array();
if (!$instance) {
$instance[0] =& new I18n();
$instance[0]->l10n =& new L10n();
$language = Configure::read('Config.language');
if ($language === null &&
!empty($_SESSION['Config']['language'])) {
$language = $_SESSION['Config']['language'];
}
$instance[0]->l10n->get($language);
}
return $instance[0];
}
Since I'm doing language switching this seems backwards to me. If it's
been switched, the new language would never be picked up here, it
seems. Anyway, I stuck debug("i18n: ${language}"); in there but
$language is consistently empty.
Trying my initial hunch, I modified the method to have:
if (!empty($_SESSION['Config']['language']))
{
$language = $_SESSION['Config']['language'];
}
else
{
$language = Configure::read('Config.language');
}
This seems more reasonable to me because my language switching code (a
modified version of Jason Chow's P28NComponent) is writing the newly-
requested lang to the session.
But the debug() is still showing it's empty, however. So, I put
debug($_SESSION) in my default.ctp and it properly shows the new
language, eg:
Array
(
[Config] => Array
(
[userAgent] => 67d3fbdba7bd59adfe49aefd8b4eb32b
[time] => 1206579533
[rand] => 563719418
[timeout] => 9
[language] => fr
)
)
When I print the output from Configure::read('Config.language') on the
page I see "en-us". This doesn't change even when I modify the
component to add a Configure::write('Config.language', $lang);
Does anyone have any thoughts on why the session appears to be empty
in the i18n class? And, if this is normal, why getInstance() would
bother checking it?
