Zend Framework 2 - Layout and variable

Question

p         


        

Answer 1

There are three ways to achieve this in ZF2 (in your controller):

First:

$this->layout()->someVariableName = 'Some value for the variable';

Second:

$this->layout()->setVariable('someVariableName', 'Some value for the variable');

Third:

$this->layout()->setVariables(array(
    'someVariableName' => 'Some value for the variable',
    'anotherVariable'  => 'Some value for another variable',
);
