Generated UsersController contains static method calls to Confide

[melv-n]

I'm using version "zizaco/confide": "~4.0@dev" and ran the php artisan confide:controller command. Aside from having to fix references to my namespaces I see that all calls on the Confide class are made statically, e.g. Confide::logAttempt( ) But the Confide class doesn't even have any static methods, and thus the below error is thrown:

Non-static method Zizaco\Confide\Confide::logAttempt() should not be called statically, assuming $this from incompatible context

How can we fix this and still utilize the functions in Confide? Do we need to create an instance for this? Or should the methods be made static?

Found the issue. I had added this use statement in the top:

use Zizaco\Confide\Confide;

Which beat the Facade and auto-magic with the static classes.

My solution was to change all calls from Confide::method() to \Confide::method() to fix the errors thrown that it could not find the Confide class.
