Start Building

  1. Add a controller and action (controllers/test_lightvc.php):

    <?php
    class TestLightvcController extends AppController {
        public function     actionTestAction($one = null, $two = null) {
            if (    is_null($one)) {
                    $one = 'NULL';
            }
            if (    is_null($two)) {
                    $two = 'NULL';
            }
                $this->setVar('one', $one);
                $this->setVar('two', $two);
        }
    }
    ?>

  2. Add a view (views/test_lightvc/test_action.php):

    <h1>Test LightVC</h1>
    <p>One = "<?php echo htmlentities($one) ?>" and two = "<?php echo htmlentities($two) ?>."</p>

  3. Visit /test_lightvc/test_action/ on your server.
