BBCode parser

[Disi]

Hi everyone,

hopefully im in the right forum, if note please move it.

I run into several problems where i don't find any solutions for.

I want to create a class where i for example parse news on a external page.
I Query the database directly for explicit forums and there threads and posts.
But i gain that error:

Fatal error:  Call to a member function query_read_slave() on a non-object in PFAD/ZUM/FORUM/includes/functions.php on line 3112

the constructor of my class looks like this (D_PATH_FORUM is the whole path to my forum):

$curdir = getcwd();
chdir(PATH_FORUM);
require_once('./global.php');
chdir($curdir);
            
require_once(D_PATH_FORUM.'includes/class_bbcode.php');
$this->m_oBBCodeParser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list());

then i got a BBCode parse function in the class which looks like this

protected function parseBBCode($sContent)
        {
            $sContent = $this->m_oBBCodeParser->parse($sContent, 'nonforum', true);
            return $sContent;
        }

Well the end is i always get the error above

Hope you can help me somehow.

regards,

Well the solution is quite easy if you now what you need to do

First of all the Require/Include schould be in your in index.php or something like that but not in your class, if you put them in your class the $vbulletin variable get out of scop, don't know why but it seems a matter of fact.

Now you just need to put a global $vbulletin into your function and the vbulletin functions are working.

Thanks a lot Christian vom vbulletin-germany.org for the help!
