the name of the istance

[jlive]

Probably is trivial: sorry... this is the space for newbies

I want to define a class and a local function able to display/use the name of the istance

class Myclass {
function nameDisplayer() {
   echo $xxxxx;
}
$newIstance = new Myclass;
$newIstance->nameDisplayer();

$xxxxx is the name of the istance
result is expected to be :

newIstance

I don't understand what you are asking. Could you be more explicit?

BTW, you left off a closing brace on your top example.

[jlive]

class Myclass {
function instanceNameDisplayer() {
   //here a code I'm asking for!!!
   }
}
$newIstance = new Myclass;
$newIstance->instanceNameDisplayer();

what code I have to write where now there's the comment, to get as result the name of the instance, that is:

newIstance

?

Hope now it's clear.....

So basically, you want something that will display the name of the variable that is containing the object, right?

Dunno how to do that, but am just clarifying it for others

Yep.
Thank you for translation.....
