The autoloader

Remarks#

When you make any changes to the classes then you need to run a dev/build?flush=1 to rebuild the manifest.

MyClass.php

<?php

class MyClass {
    ...
}

class OtherClass {
    ...
}

?>

Any class that has the same name as it’s file name will be auto loaded by Silverstripe.

OtherClass will be loaded too because it is in a file which is being read.

MyPage.php

<?php

class MyPage_Controller extends BookingPage_Controller {
    ...
}

?>

For controller functions you can omit the “_Controller” part int he file name.

If a directory is to be ignored then include a file named “_manifest_exclude”
