Codeigniter更改加载的语言

Question

Currently i have a language loaded inside MY_Controller which extends CI_Controller. But inside a special page which controller (let's call it ABC controller) extends MY_Controller, I need to override the loaded language with another language. I tried loading another language inside this ABC controller, but unsuccessful. Is there a way to unload the loaded language and load another language?

Answer 1

Have you tried just loading the language file you need?

$this->lang->load('filename', 'language');

It should be then accessible just like your default language. I haven't tested this tho, but from my understanding this should be the way to go about it.

REVISED

I ended up digging a bit more for you, and found that you CANNOT load a default language (define it as default in your controller) and then later try to change it to something else.

Follow these steps:

• If you need a language OTHER than english (default), set that in your config.
• If you want to load ANOTHER language on a controller basis, you need to define that (most commonly in your constructor using something like session array / user selection.
• You cannot load 2 languages (1 in the constructor, then another in a different class.. won't work!)
