[fw-general] Wrong view helper used in Form

[Bert Van Hauwaert]

I've got a View, SE_View_Helper_FormText, that extends
Zend_View_Helper_FormText.

In the bootstrap, I've got the following code:

$viewRenderer =
Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('ViewRenderer');
$viewRenderer->initView(null, "Site_View");
$viewRenderer->view->addHelperPath('SE/View/Helper', 'SE_View_Helper');

When I'm calling in my createAction $this->view->getHelperPaths(), I'm
getting the following result:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [prefix] => Zend_View_Helper_
            [dir] =>
/home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/subdomains/cms2008/httpdocs/application/v1/private/system_mvc/views/helpers/
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [prefix] => SE_View_Helper_
            [dir] => SE/View/Helper/
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [prefix] => Site_View_Helper_
            [dir] => ./views/helpers/
        )

    [3] => Array
        (
            [prefix] => Zend_View_Helper_
            [dir] =>
/home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/subdomains/cms2008/httpdocs/library/Zend-1.5.3/View/Helper/
        )

)

When calling $this->view->getHelperPath("FormText") before calling
$this->render("item/form", null, true); in the createAction, then I get as
response "SE/View/Helper/FormText.php".
After the render, the response of $this->view->getHelperPath("FormText") =
"SE/View/Helper/FormText.php". And the form is correctly processed with the
SE_View_Helper_FormText helper.

Now, When I don't call $this->view->getHelperPath("FormText"), before
calling $this->render, the SE_View_Helper_FormText isn't used.
When calling $this->view->getHelperPath("FormText") after the render, I'm
getting
"/home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/subdomains/cms2008/httpdocs/library/Zend-1.5.3/View/Helper/FormText.php"
as a response instead of "SE/View/Helper/FormText.php".

When I'm going to Form.php to the method getView(), I'm falling in the if
statement ( if (null === $this->_view) ). 
I added a few lines:

public function getView()
    {
        if (null === $this->_view) {
            require_once 'Zend/Controller/Action/HelperBroker.php';
            $viewRenderer =
Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('viewRenderer');
            $this->_view = $viewRenderer->view;
            
            //Show available helperPaths
            echo "<pre>";
            print_r($viewRenderer->view->getHelperPaths());
            echo "</pre><hr>";

            //Show helperPath for FormText
            echo "<pre>";
            print_r($viewRenderer->view->getHelperPath("FormText"));
            echo "</pre><hr>";
        }

        return $this->_view;
    }

As response, I'm getting this:
 
Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [prefix] => Zend_View_Helper_
            [dir] =>
/home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/subdomains/cms2008/httpdocs/application/v1/private/system_mvc/views/helpers/
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [prefix] => SE_View_Helper_
            [dir] => SE/View/Helper/
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [prefix] => Site_View_Helper_
            [dir] => ./views/helpers/
        )

    [3] => Array
        (
            [prefix] => Zend_View_Helper_
            [dir] =>
/home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/subdomains/cms2008/httpdocs/library/Zend-1.5.3/View/Helper/
        )

)
----------------------------------------------
/home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/subdomains/cms2008/httpdocs/library/Zend-1.5.3/View/Helper/FormText.php

You see here that the path for SE_View_Helper is known, but the wrong view
helper is taken.

Does somebody know a solution for this problem? It seems that it is similiar
like this

Thanks in advance!
