[Solar-talk] Verifying Login Status

[Sean Montague]

Just as a follow up, I modified my Vendor_App_Base to look like this:

        function _setup() {
            // Register a Solar_Sql object if not already
            if (! Solar_Registry::exists('sql')) {
                Solar_Registry::set('sql', Solar::factory('Solar_Sql'));
            }
           
            // Register a Solar_User object if not already.
            // This will trigger the authentication process.
            if (! Solar_Registry::exists('user')) {
                Solar_Registry::set('user', Solar::factory('Solar_User'));
            }
           
            $auth = Solar::factory('Solar_Auth');
            $auth->start();
            Solar_Registry::set('auth', $auth);
            if (Solar_Registry::get('auth')->isValid()) {
                // user is logged in
            } else {
                // user is *not* logged in
                $uri = Solar::factory('Solar_Uri');
                if($uri->path[0] != 'Login') {
                    ob_start();
                    header("Location: http://solartutorial/Login");
                    ob_end_flush();
                    exit;
                }
            }
        }

and it works great. Thanks!
