Yaf_Dispatcher::dispatch

Dispatch a request

Description

public Yaf_Response_Abstract Yaf_Dispatcher::dispatch(Yaf_Request_Abstract $request)

This method does the heavy work of the Yaf_Dispatcher. It take a request object.

The dispatch process has three distinct events:

  • Routing
  • Dispatching
  • Response
Routing takes place exactly once, using the values in the request object when Yaf_Dispatcher::dispatch is called. Dispatching takes place in a loop; a request may either indicate multiple actions to dispatch, or the controller or a plugin may reset the request object to force additional actions to dispatch(see Yaf_Plugin_Abstract. When all is done, the Yaf_Dispatcher returns a response.

Parameters
