OO

[Anon]

I'm using php3

I've checked the manual but I didn't find a complete solutiion for this:

1. How should i declare an object CREATOR?
2. And to make a 'with' clause?

Are this examples (A and 😎 correct?

A. SINGLE OBJECT + WITH CLAUSE:

obj.login = false;
obj.wait = 'please wait';
obj.welcome = redirect('welcome.php3');
obj.goodbye = redirect('goodbye.php3');

echo (obj.wait);
with obj do{
if (obj.welcome) {

B. CREATOR + OBJECT INSTANCE:

$obj_instance1 = new colorobject('blue');
echo ($obj_instance1.color);

function colorobject($color){
this.color = $color;
return this;
}

Thanks A LOT.

Not sure about the WITH question, but for a creator, you just name the function within the object the same as the object itself. If your object is named foo, then you have a function foo() within the object declaration. This function is the creator and is run whenever a new object is created...

AFAIK PHP does not have a "WITH" construct like other OO languages and your property references are incorrect. It should be something more like this:

// notice that object properties must be explicitely declared with "var"
// notice that the "constructor" is a function witht he same name as the class.
// the constructor is helpful for doing initialization things but can be
// omitted.

class colorObject {
var $color;

function colorObject ($this->color) {
//do other constructor stuff
}
}

// include the object
// assuming the name of the file with our object def is "colorObject.php"
require ("colorObject.php");

// instantiate the object
$myobject = new colorObject("blue");

// reference properties and methods with the "->" operator
print $myobject->color;

Hope this quick example helps!
