For re-useable controller functionality you should either use a common parent class for both controllers, instead extending one controller by another, or you should use action-helpers.

the common features are in default controller and it is in module default. i want to get these default controller in all other module controllers. i tried with action helper but i cannot able to get Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract object in the action helper.

i am trying to implement the solution described in stackoverflow.com/questions/583636/….. but i have a modular structure... so as mention in the given link i have a base controller in the default module which cannot be able to extend to other controller. is there a better solution for this situation?

@guny I just can repeat myself: The common features should not be in a requestable controller. An by the way its just way much easier to implement one generic parent controller-class inside your personal library ;)

actually i am newbie in zend framework and i have learnt about action helper, plugin in library but how cum a parent controller class inside ?

my user class class User_IndexController extends Default_IndexController { public function init() { /* Initialize action controller here */ } public function indexAction() { // action body // if ($this->getRequest()->isPost()) // { // $this->view->name=$_POST['username']; // } } class Default_IndexController extends Zend_Controller_Action {} }
