Load jInput failed

[Viktor Iwan]

Hello,
i'm trying to load jInput Object in My Platform apps, but failed, i already add:

require  JPATH_BASE.'/libraries/joomla/application/input.php';
$jinput = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
$foo = $jinput->get('test', 'yes', 'string');

it returns error "Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in..."

any idea ? i don't have problem with jRequest... but i think i need to get used with jInput....

JFactory::getApplication isn't returning an object because it probably hasn't been set yet.  You need to prime the factory now.  It is far better to manage your application on its own than to use the factory anyway.

Nonetheless, if JFactory makes you feel more comfortable, then you can still use it.  You'll see it being populated at at: https://github.com/joomla/joomla-platform-examples/blob/master/web/flickr-feed/index.php#L105

Hi!

You do not need to require input separately. The instance of Input should be in Application already. Does your Application extends JApplicationWeb?
