I'm working on an extension and could use help testing for the existence of a user. Here is what I'm trying to do:

$user =& $userClass->fetchByEmail($emailAddress);
// if user not found, then create

Any help on this would be appreciated. My PHP is a bit weak.

from eZUser you can read

    function &fetchByEmail( $email, $asObject = true )
    {
        $user =& eZPersistentObject::fetchObject( eZUser::definition(),
                                                  null,
                                                  array( 'email' => $email ),
                                                  $asObject );
        return $user;
    }

so

$user =& eZUser::fetchByEmail( $email );

have fun coding
