Exception on attempt to retrieve ID Topic is solved

[MaxK91]

Hello, everyone!

I encountered the following problem.

When I tried to run the this code:

Code: Select all

$itemIdentifier = $input->get('id');	

function getArticleData($itemIdentifier = null)
	{
		if(!empty($itemIdentifier))
		{
			$article = JControllerLegacy::getInstance('Content')->getModel('Article')->getItem($itemIdentifier);
			
			return $article;
		}
               
                return false
        }

I always get this error when I go to page where "com_phocagallery" is responsible for page rendering and not "com_content":

Error: Call to undefined method InvalidArgumentException::get(): Wrong controller class: ContentController

It seems error goes away if I use the following condition:

Code: Select all

if($input->get("view") == article)
{
	$itemIdentifier = $input->get('id');
}

So, as far as I can tell, the problem is with the component, because I'm trying to get ID from Application input, what's global thing. What's strange is that input on page where phocagallery works contains ID too, there is ID of phocagallery category though, meaning that get() should be available for use.

Could anyone give me a hint on this?

JControllerLegacy::getInstance('Content') tries to load the ContentController.
Joomla know where to find that controller on pages where com_content is active,
On other pages it doesn't know where to find it.

So you'll have to load the ContentController class
by adding the file with that class using JLoader::register before trying to "getInstance" it.

Thanks for the reply! I'll take a closer look based on your advice! Thank you again!
