将数组传递给CodeIgniter中的系统核心Controller.php

I am in the process of updating my CodeIgniter app from version 2.x to 3.1. Previously, I used to call this function to count the number of non-zero numbers in the passed-in array:

function getCountOfNonZero($array, $d) {
    $NonZeroCount = 0;
    foreach($array as $key=>$value) {
        if(is_array($value)) {
            $d = $key;
            $NonZeroCount += getCountOfNonZero($value, $d); }
        else {
              if($value<>0 & $key<>'RES') {
                $NonZeroCount++;
            }
        }
    }
    return $NonZeroCount;
}

Now that I am trying to call this function in version 3.1 of CodeIgniter, I am getting an error. This is how I call the function:

echo "Count of non-zero is: ".$controller->getCountOfNonZero($myArray);

One thing that is different is that the function is in system\core\Controller.php but this is returning an error whenever I call the function and try to pass in the array.

Is there any reason why I can't pass an array to the core system controller in CodeIgniter?

Now that you have moved the function into a class you you will need to use $this->getCountOfNonZero($value, $d); when calling the function from within itself.

function getCountOfNonZero($array, $d) {
    $NonZeroCount = 0;
    foreach($array as $key=>$value) {
        if(is_array($value)) {
            $d = $key;
            $NonZeroCount += $this->getCountOfNonZero($value, $d); }
        else {
              if($value<>0 & $key<>'RES') {
                $NonZeroCount++;
            }
        }
    }
    return $NonZeroCount;
}

Personally I would probably just put the method into a helper file and autoload it, rather than tethering it to your core controller.

Creating a helper method:

1. As your method relates to arrays, we could just extend the already existing array helper by creating the following file.

application/helpers/MY_array_helper.php

2. Add your original method to the file.

3. Auto-load it during system initialization. This is done by opening the application/config/autoload.php file and adding the helper to the autoload array.

4. Usage it anywhere in your application:
