Class Problems

[Anon]

I have a class that has multiple instance variables. Every time I set one variable, the rest are set to the same value.

ie The following code.

class TempObject
{
var $var1;
var $var2;

function setVar1($)
{
$this->$var1 = $;
}

function setVar2($)
{
$this->$var2 = $;
}

function TempObject($1, $2)
{
$this->setVar1($1);
$this->setVar2($2);
}

function getVar1()
{
return $this->$var1;
}

function getVar2()
{
return $this->$var2;
}

}

$temp = new TempObject("Testing", "1234");
echo "Var1=".$this->getVar1()."\n";
echo "Var2=".$this->getVar2();

---

Will print out the following:

1234
1234

Any ideas?

I think the problem is with your syntax. First, when you reference class variables, you use $this->variable_name. There is no need for the '$' before the variable name.

Second, you can't use the $this reference outside the scope of the class definition. In your example, you should use $temp->getVar1() and $temp->getVar2() to access the object's methods.

I think if you make these correction, your program will work as expected.
