Some LiveUser Questions

Hello, I'm attempting to use LiveUser to build some front end interfaces to do things like "addApplication" and "addUser" etc... I've examined the code quite a bit and think I need to instantiate LiveUser_Admin_Perm_Container_DB_Complex so that I can do these admin functions. Taking a look at the constructor I find I need to pass db connection info, plus the configuration array. I don't really understand why I need both however, since $conf should contain an existing connection. My basic question is: should I instantiate LiveUser_Admin_Perm_Container_DB_Complex directly? I wasn't able to find any kind of factory method to indirectly get the admin object. Thanks, Matt. /** * Constructor * * The second parameters expects the smae array as you use * when instantiating LiveUser::factory() * * @access protected * @param mixed Array or PEAR::DB object. * @param array configuration array * @return void * @see LiveUser::factory() */ function &LiveUser_Admin_Perm_Container_DB_Complex(&$connectOptions, $conf)
