[Typo3-dev] Calling a plugin from within another plugin

[Boris Nicolai]

Hi,
I made it the following way:

in the file, where's the class of your plugin include the other plugin:

require_once (t3lib_extMgm::extPath
("sourceopt")."pi1/class.tx_sourceopt_pi1.php");

replace sourceopt by your extension-key.

and then the following call:
$tx_sourceopt_pi1 =& new tx_sourceopt_pi1 ();
$tx_sourceopt_pi1->main (&$this->content, &configuration_stuff);


hope this helps
