Need Explanation On How Yii::app()->Name Works

[maman 0]

Hello guys I was confused to what Yii::app()->name meant. I know that Yii::app() is calling the static function app() in the YiiBase class, but there is no property name in that same class, can someone explain?

Hi,

 

There is a property called name in app.  Here is a link to the documentation for $app property.

 

http://www.yiiframework.com/doc-2.0/yii-web-application.html

 

use a program like notepad++ that can recursively search sub-folders for Yii::$app->name and see what shows up.  You'll get an idea of how it might be used.

 

Hope that helps,

 

Brent.
