Where to place traits?
  • sagikazarmarksagikazarmark
    If I want to make it loaded by the autoloader, then I would say the classes directory, but traits are not classes, right?
  • HarroHarro
    Correct.

    And with the current autoloader it's not going to work, because it will do a class_exist() check, which fails on a trait.

    It's probably better to store them somewhere else, like APPPATH.'traits', and use

    \Fuel::load(APPPATH.'traits'.DS.'mytrait.php');
  • sagikazarmarksagikazarmark
    Actually it is working for me. The Autoloader finds my trait, and loads it correctly. It is in a module, so I did not add it manually.

    Can't this be part of the core? Of course with PHP version checking.
  • HarroHarro
    If it works, what do you want to be part of the core?
  • sagikazarmarksagikazarmark
    :)

    Well, you said that it is not expected to work. So this could be investigated, and maybe traits could be handled individually in autoloader.
  • HarroHarro
    That is what I expected. But if you say it works, then no further action is needed?
