"no database selected" when loading custom class

Hi there,

I am trying to upgrade from Evo to Revo, and frankly i'm stuck at stage 2.
in Evo i am loading a custom class within the index.php file and all is well, in Revo however, i am trying to do the same and it says "no database selected". Note that the database is just the database modx runs in, no seperate ones here.

My best gues is that it is something to do with this, but i'm not sure:



this is what i am calling in index:


Is someone familliar with this, am i mssing the obvious?

Kind Regards,

Well, turns out including a dbconnect in the custom class does do the trick, however it still bugs me and i think it can be done otherwise.
