Conclusion - Autoloading in Zend Framework
Zend Framework encourages the use of autoloading, and even initializes it by default in Zend_Application. Hopefully this tutorial provides you with the information you need to use Zend_Loader_Autoloader to its best advantage, as well as extend its capabilities by attaching custom autoloaders or resource autoloaders.
For more information on its usage, read the Zend_Loader_Autoloader and Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource manual pages.
