ZEND execute/call function stored in string - zend-framework

i have a problem with calling a function which name is a string.
I made few helpers which i want to echo in my phtml file like this:
echo $this->EditProfile();
echo $this->ViewProfile();
The EditProfile() and ViewProfile() are names of the View Helpers which i created and i'm calling them in view. And this method is working fine. But when i want dynamicly call a function by name stored in database im trying to do this in this way:
im getting the names of helpers from database and store them into array and then trying to display them in foreach.
foreach ($this->modules as $key => $module)
{
echo $this->$module['name'];
}
the variable
$module['name']
contains a valid name of Helper which i want to call in phtml file (checked with Zend_debug::dump() and with just an echo $module['name'] in foeach and id display it properly... but this echo its not working and not calling the View Helper, nothing is displayed
when i try eval or call_user_func too nothing is displayed too... How can i do this in foreach or other loop?

ok solved it myself :)
dont know is this solution properly but its actually working ;)
instead call_user_func i mentioned that magical function __call is same as call_user_func_array
so i edited code like this below
foreach ($this->modules as $key => $module)
{
$this->__call($module['name'],array(null));
}
in this case array is null cause none parameters are passed to function. If in my helper ill need parameters ill pass them in this array in future.
And this solution works fine for me :)
If someone have better solution please post it here and share your opinion ;)

Mojolicious sharing of form element name between Perl and the template

I'm new at using Mojolicious and therefore I apologize if this is a basic question but I looked around and couldn't find a good way to do it.
I would like to know what's the best strategy to share the name of form parameters between the Perl code (to be used in param('element') and a template (to be used in say INPUT name="element" ...>.
Is there a way to define 'element' somewhere so that it can be used in both the Perl side and the template side? A super global variable?
Thanks in advance!
if i understand you correct then stash - is answer for your question.
https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojolicious::Controller#stash
Example. In controller you have such code:
sub action {
my $c = shift;
$c->stash(name_of_param => $c->param('name_of_param'), another_param => $c->param('another_param'));
$c->render;
}
In template:
<h1><%= $name_of_param %></h1>
<h2><%= $another_param %></h2>
I think that more good way not exist.

Zend Framework 1.12, execution of raw SQL inserts the same record twice

I know there´s a similar situation in stack, and I´ve already checked it out and the answers have not guided me to mine.
Here´s the deal:
I need to execute raw SQL, an INSERT to be precise. I have multiple values to insert as well. No problem since Zend let´s you use "query" from Zend_Db_Table (I use my default adapter, initialized in my application.ini file).
$db_adapter = Zend_Db_Table::getDefaultAdapter();
....query gets built...
$stmt = $db_adapter->query($query);
$stmt->execute();
When doing var_dump($query); this is what I see:
INSERT INTO tableName (col1,col2,col3) VALUES ('value1', 'value2', 'value3')
I have already tried the following:
I have no "manifesto" attribute on the html page rendered
I have looked at the network both with Chrome and Firefox to see the POSTS/GETS getting sent, and the controller whose actions does
this INSERT gets called once with a POST.
It is true that I call a viewscript from another action to be rendered, like so:
$this->renderScript('rough-draft/edit.phtml');
I don´t see how that could affect the statement getting executed twice.
I know it gets executed twice:
Before the POST is sent, the data base has nothing, clean as a whistle
POST gets sent, logic happens, from is rendered again
Data base now has the same record twice (with the name that has been inserted from the POST), so it´s not a rendering problem
It has to do with the way I am executing raw SQL, because if I use ->insert($data) method that comes with Zend_Db_Table_Abstract (obviously I declare a class that extends from this abstract one and bind it to the appropriate table) it does not insert the record twice. Thing is, I want to use raw SQL.
I really appreciate your help!
Expanded as requested:
Controller code:
public function saveAction()
{
$request = $this->getRequest();
if (!$request->isPost())
$this->_sendToErrorPage();
$this->_edit_roughdraft->saveForm($request->getPost());
$this->view->form = $this->_edit_roughdraft->getForm();
$this->renderScript('rough-draft/edit.phtml');
}
Code from model class (in charge of saving the form from the data in POST):
public function saveForm($form_data) {
$db = new Application_Model_DbTable_RoughDrafts();
$id = $form_data['id'];
$db->update($this->_get_main_data($form_data), array('id=?' => $id));
/* Main data pertains to getting an array with the data that belongs to yes/no buttons
* and text input. I need to do it as so because the other data belongs to a dynamically
* built (by the user) multi_select where the options need to be deleted or inserted, that
* happens below
*/
$multi_selects = array('responsables', 'tareas', 'idiomas', 'habilidades', 'perfiles');
foreach($multi_selects as $multi_select){
if(isset($form_data[$multi_select]) && !empty($form_data[$multi_select])){
$function_name = '_save_'.$multi_select;
$this->$function_name($form_data[$multi_select], $id);
}
}
$this->_form = $this->createNewForm($id, true);
//The createNewForm(..) simply loads data from data_base and populates form
}
I do want to make clear though that I have also used $db->insert($data), where $db is a class that extends from Zend_Db_Table_Abstract (associated to a table). In this case, the record is inserted once and only once. That´s what leads me to believe that the problem lies within the execution of my raw sql, I just don´t know what is wrong with it.
I should have done this from the beginning, thanks for the help everyone, I appreciate your time.
I knew the problem was with my syntax, but I didn´t know why. After looking at different examples for how people did the raw sql execution, I still didn´t understand why. So I went ahead and opened the class Zend_Db_Adapter_Abstract in Zend library and looked for the 'query()' method I was using to get the statement to execute.
public function query($sql, $bind = array())
{
...some logic...
// prepare and execute the statement with profiling
$stmt = $this->prepare($sql);
**$stmt->execute($bind);**
// return the results embedded in the prepared statement object
$stmt->setFetchMode($this->_fetchMode);
return $stmt;
}
So the ->query(..) method from the Zend_Db_Adapter already executes said query. So if I call
->execute() on the statement that it returns, I'll be the one causing the second insert.
Working code:
$db_adapter = Zend_Db_Table::getDefaultAdapter();
....query gets built...
$db_adapter->query($query);

can any one tell me how to access my parsed xml object

i have this parsed object
$xmlObj = new SimpleXMLElement($XMLToParse, LIBXML_DOTTED_VERSION, FALSE, "http://SOME/schema/universal_v17_0");
that has the stucture like this inside it
<universal:UniversalR LocatorCode="somecode" Version="2" Status="Active">
<common_v17_0:Book Key="some" TravelerType="some">
so i can access the first element(its attributes) like this $VariableX=$xmlObj->UniversalR->attributes();//then $VariableX["Status"];
but when i want access his child i cant $tm=$xmlObj->UniversalR->Book->attributes();
it doesnt want to enter probably because of the different namespace...can any one help me . THX
I found something here http://blog.sherifmansour.com/?p=302
foreach ($xmlObj->UniversalRecord as $entry){
$namespaces = $entry->getNameSpaces(true);
$cmm = $entry->->children($namespaces['common_v17_0']);
$aa=$cmm->Book->attributes();
echo $aa["TravelerType"]."ddddd";
}
That should do it :)
$tm=$xmlObj->UniversalRecord->Book->attributes(); is this typo (UniversalRecord instead of UniversalR) only present in this post or is it also present in your code?
(I'd have liked to post this as a comment.. but it looks like i'm not allowed to, or am too stupid to find the button. :/)

Which file contains function of core/session in magento?

I need to customize other's code,
so I found they used
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getMyCustomBlockInfo();
in Order.php file for custom order email
so I can't find this function getMyCustomBlockInfo();
Can anyone tell me where this function reside?
Thanks
those are magic functions get() and set() and you are asking a session variable there that is set as
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->setMyCustomBlockInfo();
somewhere in your code. If you use terminal you can easily find by making a following grep:
grep '>setMyCustomBlockInfo(' . -rsni
and it will list the files where your variable is set to session.
example :
Mage::getModel('catalog/product'); //or
Mage::getSingleton('catalog/product');
the code must be in '../app/core/Mage/Catalog/Model/Product.php' file
then
Mage::getSingleton('core/session');
the code must be in '../app/core/Mage/Core/Model/Session.php' file
because the class Mage_Core_Model_Session's parent::parent is Varien_Object, then you can do all magic functions and you can ->getData() to see the Data inside.
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getData();
on your problem when go call ->getData() you can see data : [my_custom_block_info]
you can set it with call
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->setMyCustomBlockInfo('what');
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getMyCustomBlockInfo();
// will return 'what'

How to get values from controller

I am trying to print hello world.
For that i created class and return function in models folder, and the returning value is "hello world".
In controller, i am getting the values from module like this:
$value = new getValue();
$this->view->index = $value->hello_world();
I don't know how to get the values from controllers and print into views php folder.
In fac, you put "Hello world" string into the variable "index" of the controller's view when your are doing this $this->view->index = $value->hello_world();.
So, if your $value->hello_world(); function correctly return an "Hello world" string, for print it into the controller's view, you just have to do add this php code echo $this->index; into your view file.
I really think you should read a tutorial first of all. It can be quite hard to try to figure out how Zend Framework works just by starting to code right away.
The Quick Start guide suggested by #palmplam should be fine.
In addition, I found the Rob Allen's tutorial really useful when I started using Zend Framework. It contains plenty of sample code.
