You might be better off using the defining an init() method instead of
overwriting the constructor:
class Account extends Zend_Db_Table_Abstract
{
protected $_name = 'account';
public function init()
{
$this->_acc = $this->getCurrentAccount();
}
/* ... */
}
The advantage is that you can still use the default constructor for
overwriting values on instantiation:
$table = new Account(array('schema' => 'other_schema'));
and you also won't run into problems with strict PHP5 errors (you can't
remove arguments from a method when redefining it in a base class).
