require_once   ('RiPHPLib/MVC/View.php'         ) ;
require_once   ('RiPHPLib/Controls/Constant.php') ;
 
class Lib_View_Message extends RPL_MVC_View
{
function __construct ($message)
{
   #  Parent constructor is passed the path to the skeleton file.
   #
   parent::__construct ('Skeleton/View/Message.skel') ;
 
   #  Create a RPL_Controls_Constant constant control to display the message. This
   #  is loaded with the message and passed to the view to be used then the skeleton
   #  is rendered.
   #
 
   $ctrl = new RPL_Controls_Constant (null, 'message', array('constant' => $message)) ;
   $this->addControl ($ctrl) ;
}
}
 
?>

The view is a type of MVC_View object which simply means it's a view.

It tells itself which skeleton to use and then creates a constant control in order to pass the value to the skeleton. It thens adds the control into itself.
