Hello, I want to confirm if function set_global is also able to use on ViewModel?

Because when I change my view object to ViewModel, the function set_global return error.

Here is the code :

$this->template->set_global('post', $post, false);

returns error :

ErrorException [ Fatal Error ]:
Call to undefined method Admin\View_Template::set_global()

I need help. Thank you so much.

The Viewmodel itself does not support set_global(). A Viewmodel is a class, global scope should be avoided (even when using views, it's a bad idea and points to design flaws).

If you insist, you can use get_view() to get the Viewmodel's View object, and call set_global() on that.

Yes I too feel that set_global is should not be used,

but it's strange that I see the practice is used on generated admin page from oil, that's why I think this is recommended from the developer.

You have a point, the generation code is now 3 years old, and in need of an overhaul.

Since Fuel v2 will get a completely rewritten oil environment, we felt we shouldn't spend much time on the existing code.
