Loading issues

[Acs]

Hey

 

I am trying to create my own framework and I have done something with the MVC pattern.

This is what I have in my action of one of my controllers.

 

 
$this->loadmodel("teste");

 

 

This is just simply to load the model teste which is just this bit of code:

 

class teste extends acs_activerecord {
    public function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();    
    }       
}

 

Ok, this is really simple stuff. My problem really begins in the loadmodel function, I have placed here the relevant code:

 

//loadmodel function
if (is_file($mpath)) {
            require($mpath);
            if (class_exists($m,false)) {
                //To prevent 2 calls to the autoload function (to get acs_db and acs_activerecord) 
                //I will include the files if they don't already exist
                if (class_exists("acs_db",false) === false) { //I check for the files before ever instantiating the class
                    echo "Loading the files";
                    require($this->configData->basedir . "acs_db." . $this->configData->common_extension);
                    require($this->configData->basedir . "acs_activerecord." . $this->configData->common_extension);
                }
                else
                    echo "Already Loaded";
                $this->m[$m] = new $m;
                return $this->m[$m];            
            }               
        }

 

As you can see from the comments

//To prevent 2 calls to the autoload function (to get acs_db and acs_activerecord)

                //I will include the files if they don't already exist

I am trying to prevent 2 calls to the autoload function, one to load the acs_activerecord class and another to load the acs_db class (acs_activerecord extends that one).

The problem I am having is that I get the "Already Loaded" msg every time I run this.

I have placed the second parameter in class_exists to false to prevent a call to autoload, but I am still somehow calling autoload.

 

I have here an image of the cachegrind output from xdebug:

 

 

I placed a little arrow where the teste_Model.php is loaded and you see an immediate call to autoload, but in the loadmodel function you can see that I just require the file, check if the class exists and then check if the acs_db class exists and try to load it. Only after this do I instantiate the class.

 

So my question here, is how the heck do I have those calls to autoload if I am not instantiating the class??

 

Thanks

 

PS: I have attached the cachegrid output in case any one wants to see it.

Well I failed to notice before, but the files are actually being loaded when I do a require to the class file.

 

Is this correct?? The teste_Model.php only has this code

 

<?php
class teste extends acs_activerecord {
    public function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();    
    }       
}
?>

 

It doesn't instantiate anything. How can this call the acs_activerecord???
