Hi All, I've folow the classes doc (http://docs.fuelphp.com/general/classes.html) and add a simple echo "hello world" into the __int() function (nasty but good way to test) of my classes/base.php file. It seem the method is call twice because I have 2 "hello word" print on top of my page. Is it normal ??? thanks

ok, I get it! I used to call Base::_init(); from my controller, so base.php was 1/ call (implicit call _init() method), 2/ perform _init() a second time. I added a test() method and call it from the controller instead of _int() :

class Base
{
 private static $i = 0;
 
 public static function _init()
 {
  ++self::$i;
  }
 
 public static function test()
 {
  ++self::$i;
  echo 'hi all from test!: '.self::$i;
 }
}

and it print "hi all from test!: 2", great!

_init() is called as soon as the class is loaded. See it as a static equivalent of __construct(). There is no need to call it yourself.
