[TYPO3-mvc] Standalone Controller

[Tobias Liebig]

Hej,

i think what you want to do (in case of CLI) is an implementation of "Tx_Extbase_MVC_Controller_CommandController".

See an example here (it's not FED related) 
http://fedext.net/features/scheduler-tasks/scheduler-task.html
and here
http://www.q-bic.at/extbase-command-controller/


And In the case of calling extbase from a UserFunc:
http://forge.typo3.org/projects/typo3v4-mvc/wiki/Dispatcher_rework (see the PHP example)
