Getting a Reference to a Zend_Application's Config Object

Question

Is there a helper method/object/methodology for getting a reference to a Zend_Application's config resource?

I know I can do something like

$config = new Zend_Config_Ini($file, $environment);

but that's going to reload/parse the config file. I'm looking for a way to peek at the given configuration value for a running Zend_Application.

The larger issue I'm trying to solve is I want a Zend_Queue to use the same database settings as my default database resource. If there's a more "Zend Like" way of achieving this other than "get reference to config, read resource values" please feel free to share that as well!

Answer 1

class Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap
{
    public function run()
    {
        // make the config available to everyone
        $config = $this->getOptions();
        Zend_Registry::set('config', new Zend_Config($config));
        parent::run();
    }
}

Zend_Queue

there is code in Zend_Queue_Adapter_Db __construct if (isset($this->_options['dbAdapter'])) so u can do thomething like this

new Zend_Queue_Adapter_Db(array('dbAdapter' => Zend_Db_Table::getDefaultAdapter()));

because standart Zend_Application_Resource_Db can use config option resources.db.isDefaultTableAdapter = true

or u can put db adapter in registry and get it from there at any place

Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getParam('bootstrap')->getOptions()
