Re: [SMARTY-DEV] patch for run function

Hi Tom, I have not taken the time to completly review your patch, but I think if I wanted to implement this kind of functionality, I would probably just extend my custom smarty class to override the display function. i.e. class my_smarty extends smarty { function display($tpl) { $this->assign('myvar', 'myval'); parent::display($tpl); } } Jason ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Sommer" <webmaster@tsn.dk> To: <smarty-dev@lists.php.net> Sent: Saturday, March 01, 2003 7:55 PM Subject: [SMARTY-DEV] patch for run function > Only one thing is lacking in smarty (IMO), the ability to assign variables > just before displaying a page, this patch is a starter for such a function > > What this is used for is to display things such as execution time etc. > > Here is an example of what a function could do > > function smarty_runfunction_setexecutiontime (&$smarty) > { > global $time_start; > > $smarty->assign('PARSETIME', round(getmicrotime() - $time_start,5)); > > } > > Each time a template is _displayed_ ( $smarty->display() ) these variables > will be set. > > Things such as number of MySQL queries etc can also be included > > Anyway, consider this patch...
