Hello,
I forgot to mention that, executing:
"Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract::setDispatched(false);" does not solve the
problem. Is there any way to execute an action after all the actions are
already dispatched? postDispatch is executed for every action dispatch, right?
How can one force the execution of one more action in the postDispatch OR
dispatchLoopShutdown method?
Code that doesn't work:
public function postDispatch( Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract $request )
{
//var_dump( Zend_Controller_Front::getControllerDirectory() );
$stack = $this->getStack();
$leftMenuRequest = new Zend_Controller_Request_Simple();
$leftMenuRequest->setDispatched(false);
$leftMenuRequest->setModuleName('edms')
->setControllerName('menu')
->setActionName('index');
$stack->pushStack($leftMenuRequest);
Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract::setDispatched(false);
}

Hello all,
I want to generate a menu for every page. As one of the quickest method (am I
wrong here? are there quicker methods? at least it is quicker than calling
action() from template) is to register a plugin that adds in the stack of the
Zend_Front_Controller a new Zend_Controller_Request_Simple object. Because I
need to colour some things in the menu (make active a link), I need this action
executed after the dispatch process.
So I have this:
class Controller_Plugin_Menu extends Zend_Controller_Plugin_Abstract
{
protected $_stack;
public function postDispatch( Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract $request )
{
//var_dump( Zend_Controller_Front::getControllerDirectory() );
$stack = $this->getStack();
$leftMenuRequest = new Zend_Controller_Request_Simple();
$leftMenuRequest->setModuleName('edms')
->setControllerName('menu')
->setActionName('index');
$stack->pushStack($leftMenuRequest);
}
public function getStack()
{
if (null === $this->_stack) {
$front = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
if (!$front->hasPlugin('Zend_Controller_Plugin_ActionStack')) {
$stack = new Zend_Controller_Plugin_ActionStack();
$front->registerPlugin($stack);
} else {
$stack = $front->getPlugin('ActionStack');
}
$this->_stack = $stack;
}
return $this->_stack;
}
}
The problem now is that this action is never executed . What is wrong? Do I
have to set some flags in order to get that action executed?
A second small question: How can get the list of all modules registered to the
Front_Controller from within that plugin?
Thank you very much,
Andrei
