The Module class.

Hi Guys.

 

When I create a new Prestashop 1.6 project in Netbeans and I extend the Module class it doesn't pick up the Module class but only ModuleCore. So I was just wondering is the Module class declared somewhere in a file or is it auto generated during runtime because I also couldnt find it when searching the files? (I searched for  "class Module")

 

Then i have another question and that is what folders can I exclude from the netbeans project. Currently I exclude only the "cache" folder.

 

Thanks.

The "Module" class I think it is auto-generated during runtime based on the informations in "cache/class_index.php" file, if there is no override for "Module" class, or in override/classes/module/Module.php if there is an override. Basically, if there is no override, Module=ModuleCore

BTW: You have to extend "Module", not "ModuleCore", so the overrides take place if there is any.

Hi Geo. I think you are right yes. What I did was to create a tmp file in my module structure with the following contents: "class Module extends ModuleCore {}" so that NetBeans autocomplete work. Thanks
