Re: Make AppController variable available in pluginAppController

You're not setting the variables in the object scope but in the method scope. This means that the variables will be erased from memory when the method execution has been done. You also need to make sure that you call 

parent::beforeFilter();

In your plugin's AppController. Otherwise the general AppController's beforeFilter won't be called.

In the AppController, I want to put the plugin, controller and action in variables just like this:

class AppController extends Controller
{
    public $components = array(
        'DebugKit.Toolbar',
        'Session'
    );
   
    public function beforeFilter()
    {
        $plugin = $this->request->params['plugin'];
        $controller = $this->request->params['controller'];
        $action = $this->request->params['action'];
    }
}

Now, I've made a plugin called "CoasterCms". I thought every plugin got all the variables stored in AppController so I could get the plugin variable:

<?php

class CoasterCmsAppController extends AppController

{

    public $helpers = array(

        'Html',

        'Form',

        'Session'

    );

    

    public $components = array(

        'Session',

        'Paginator'

    );

    

    public function beforeFilter()

    {

        debug($plugin);

    }

}

However, it's not showing anything at all... What's the reason and how can I fix this?
