@Andreas: Well, using App::import() to load the component doesn’t make it a property of the respective controller.

There are two ways to fix the problem: add the component to the $components array of your controller, or if you want to use App::import() then you have to instantiate the component manually.

Hope that helps!

I have the same problem like Amr, that the Components are not started automatically.
If I do App::import(‘component’, ‘Auth’) cake says:
“Undefined property: GameController::$Auth”

I’m using 1.2.0.7296 RC2

I’ve posted a message to the google group… let’s see what happens.

Hello,
I got a problem when switching to RC1, with custom component initalisation that doesn’t seem to be perform in debug mode when errors pages such as missing controller/action are rendered.

It seem to me that controller components are not startuped anymore in such context, since it use to works perfectly well and works well with RC1 if I run the startup manually in AppController::beforefilter on the incriminated custom components.

While it’s no big deal, I felt like telling it, as it might save some time to people here ;)

@Chris: Cool :) And regarding the comment system, you could have a look at the comment system of snogs (http://cakeforge.org/projects/snogs/), maybe it saves you some time.

There wasn’t, I had been meaning to make one. Your comment spurred me on. http://thechriswalker.net/post/rss

… I guess I’d better build that comment system now… ;)

@Bernie, Chris: Thanks for your comments!

@Bernie: Yes, the Component class is not the base class for components as you might guess. The Component class is used by the controller to manage the component callbacks.

@Chris: Yes, the functionality to output the rendered view has been moved. Now, the render method simply sets a variable with the view content (and also returns its value), the output happens later (resp. doesn’t happen if there is an exit).
