Several ways, actually:
* Reset the view script path manually. Calling initView() initializes
the $view property, so all you need to do is call:
$this-> view-> setScriptPath($path);
// or
$view = $this-> initView();
$view-> setScriptPath($path);
* Override the initView() method. Doing so, you could provide your own
logic to initialize the view object, including using a different
class implementing Zend_View_Interface.
* Instantiate your own view object and assign it to the $view
property (must be done prior to any calls to initView() or render()):
$this-> view = new Zend_View();
$this-> view-> setScriptPath($path);
I tried to make the process as flexible as possible, to allow for
different template engines and the ability to modify the view
environment to suit individual needs; hopefully the above will help in
that regards.
