    <title>Objects</title>

     Smarty allows access to PHP objects through the templates. There are
 | 
						|
	 two ways to access them. One way is to register objects to the template,
 | 
						|
	 then use access them via syntax similar to custom functions. The other way
 | 
						|
	 is to assign objects to the templates and access them much like any other
 | 
						|
	 assigned variable. The first method has a much nicer template syntax. It
 | 
						|
	 is also more secure, as a registered object can be restricted to certain
 | 
						|
	 methods or properties. However, a registered object cannot be looped over
 | 
						|
	 or assigned in arrays of objects, etc. The method you choose will be
 | 
						|
	 determined by your needs, but use the first method whenever possible to
 | 
						|
	 keep template syntax to a minimum.
 | 
						|
    </para>
 | 
						|
	<para>
 | 
						|
    If security is enabled, no private methods or functions can be accessed
 | 
						|
	(begininning with "_"). If a method and property of the same name exist,
 | 
						|
	the method will be used.
 | 
						|
	</para>
 | 
						|
	<para>
 | 
						|
	You can restrict the methods and properties that can be accessed by
 | 
						|
	listing them in an array as the third registration parameter.
 | 
						|
	</para>
 | 
						|
	<para>
 | 
						|
	By default, parameters passed to objects through the templates are passed
 | 
						|
	the same way custom functions get them. An associative array is passed
 | 
						|
	as the first parameter, and the smarty object as the second. If you want
 | 
						|
	the parameters passed one at a time for each argument like traditional
 | 
						|
	object parameter passing, set the fourth registration parameter to false.
 | 
						|
	</para>
 | 
						|
	<para>
 | 
						|
	The optional fifth parameter has only effect with
 | 
						|
	<parameter>format</parameter> being <literal>true</literal>
 | 
						|
	and contains a list ob methods that should be treated as
 | 
						|
	blocks. That means these methods have a closing tag in the
 | 
						|
	template
 | 
						|
	(<literal>{foobar->meth2}...{/foobar->meth2}</literal>) and
 | 
						|
	the parameters to the methods have the same synopsis as the
 | 
						|
	parameters for block-function-plugins: They get 4 parameters
 | 
						|
	<parameter>$params</parameter>,
 | 
						|
	<parameter>$content</parameter>,
 | 
						|
	<parameter>&$smarty</parameter> and
 | 
						|
	<parameter>&$repeat</parameter> and they also behave like
 | 
						|
	block-function-plugins.

     Template prefilters are PHP functions that your templates are ran through
 | 
						|
     before they are compiled. This is good for preprocessing your templates
 | 
						|
     to remove unwanted comments, keeping an eye on what people are putting
 | 
						|
     in their templates, etc. Prefilters can be either
 | 
						|
     <link linkend="api.register.prefilter">registered</link> or loaded from
 | 
						|
     the plugins directory by using
 | 
						|
     <link linkend="api.load.filter">load_filter()</link> function or by
 | 
						|
     setting
 | 
						|
     <link linkend="variable.autoload.filters">$autoload_filters</link> variable.
 |

     Smarty will pass the template source code as the first argument, and
 | 
						|
     expect the function to return the resulting template source code.

    As an alternative to using the default file-based caching mechanism, you

    Create a function in your application that Smarty will use as a
 | 
						|
    cache handler. Set the name of it in the
 | 
						|
    <link linkend="variable.cache.handler.func">$cache_handler_func</link>
 | 
						|
    class variable. Smarty will now use this to handle cached data. The
 | 
						|
    first argument is the action, which will be one of 'read', 'write' and
 | 
						|
    'clear'. The second parameter is the Smarty object. The third parameter
 | 
						|
    is the cached content. Upon a write, Smarty passes the cached content
 | 
						|
    in these parameters. Upon a 'read', Smarty expects your function to
 | 
						|
    accept this parameter by reference and populate it with the cached
 | 
						|
    data. Upon a 'clear', pass a dummy variable here since it is not used.
 | 
						|
    The fourth parameter is the name of the template file (needed for
 | 
						|
    read/write), the fifth parameter is the cache_id (optional), and the
 | 
						|
    sixth is the compile_id (optional).

     You can retrieve templates using whatever possible source you can
 | 
						|
     access with PHP: databases, sockets, LDAP, and so on. You do this
 | 
						|
     by writing resource plugin functions and registering them with
 | 
						|
     Smarty.

      Note that you cannot override the built-in

      <literal>file</literal> resource, but you can provide a resource
 |

      that fetches templates from the file system in some other way by
 | 
						|
      registering under another resource name.
