Autoload Problem using Validation->add_callable

[danmatthews]

Using the methods suggested in Validation - Classes, i created a new file and class at fuel/app/classes/login_validation.php, with the following (test) code:

public static function _validation_authenticate_user($val) {

        echo 'Authenticate Ran ok';

        return false;

    }

    public static function _validation_check_pwd($val) {

        echo 'Password ran ok';

        return false;

    }

Then, to use it with a validation sequence in a controller i used:

$v = Validation::forge();

$v->add_callable('login_validation');

But i get an exception: InvalidArgumentException [ Error ]: Input for add_callable is not a valid object or class.

I thought this may be a problem with my class syntax, or naming, but when i manually include the class into the controller using: require_once('../fuel/app/classes/login_validation.php');

Everything works as expected.

Currently working on 1.1/master.

You have an underscore in your classname.

According to the cascading filesystem, this class should be in app/classes/login/validation.php. Now FuelPHP can't find the class, hence the error.

Ah, ok, thanks. Is there any more documentation on the cascading file system and where this applies when loading classes? I apologise if this is an RTFM situation, but when following the example from the validation documentation, it can be very confusing.
