Zend Framework - call something at the end of building a page

Question

Hi I would like to call a method at the end of a page generation using Zend Framework. How to do this?

I am using Doctrine2 + ZF. The EntityManager has a flush method, which should in the common cases only be called at the end of the page generation. Is there a hook or a destructor emulation in Zend Framework? 2

Ok recently this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2253170/zend-framework-last-code-to-execute-before-layout-is-rendered helped me more than the answers here. I had to overwrite postDispatch() but maybe I am going to change this, to be able to display an error message if an error on $em->flush() occours. — Jakob Alexander Eichler, Mar 17 '11 at 23:58

Use a controller plugin. I assume the dispatchLoopShutdown is what you need.

Is calling the parent method recommended? protected function dispatchLoopShutdown(){ parent::dispatchLoopShutdown(); $this->_em->flush(); } – Jakob Alexander Eichler Mar 17 '11 at 22:59

Why just don't use your own function?

call register_shutdown_function(); and the passed function will be executed at the end of the script
