zend_loader_autoloader does not seem to load abstr

Question

I am getting a grip on Zend_Autoload but a non-zend class I have is not loading when extended.

The autoloader is initialized like so:

 // Initialise Autoloader
 $autoloader = Zend_Loader_Autoloader::getInstance();
 $autoloader->suppressNotFoundWarnings(true);
 $autoloader->setFallbackAutoloader(true);
 $autoloader->registerNamespace('lib_');
 }

It all works fine with other classes. Is it required to load abstract class files and implemented interfaces manually beforehand?

Answer 1

Zend_loader_autoloader actually does load abstract classes, idem for any interface a class may implement. Sweet.

A couple of debugging calls straight in the Zend_Loader class quickly indicated my problem: My file was named AbstractTableFetch.php , the class was called FetchTable.

The autoloader obviously will only works if the filename and class name are the same.
