[TYPO3-mvc] How to use my own ViewHelpers in Extbase 6.x using namespaces?

[Felix Eggbert]

Hey guys, 

 

I am in the process of updating an extension to namespaces in extbase
introduced in v6 (?). 

 

I was wondering what's the right way to implement my own viewhelper now? My
old viewhelpers still work like this

 

BlablaViewHelper.php:

----------------------------

> class Tx_MyExt_ViewHelpers_BlablaViewHelper extends
Tx_Fluid_Core_ViewHelper_AbstractTagBasedViewHelper 

 

Template:

-------------

{namespace myext=Tx_MyExt_Viewhelpers} 

and 

<myext:blabla/> 

 

On the interwebs I read about the new way of using namespaces here, too but
I don't seem to get it to work. This was my approach:

 

BlablaViewHelper.php:

----------------------------

 

class BlablaViewHelper extends
\TYPO3\CMS\Fluid\ViewHelpers\Form\AbstractViewHelper 

 

Template:

{namespace myext=\MyVendor\MyExt\Classes\ViewHelpers} 

and 

<myext:blabla/>

 

But it doesn't get rendered in fluid, instead the naked tag is rendered
("<myext:blabla/>" right in the output). As if the namespace declared in the
Fluid template is not recognized.

 

Can anybody explain to me how this is done correctly or what I am doing
wrong?

 

Thanks a lot and best regards,

 

Felix
