Option between extends

[mohausa]

Can you help me please???

I have a problem:

My problem is:
I have two classes
classOne.php
classTwo.php

and I have another class that is an extend to either classOne.php or classTwo.php.

So, I would like to be able to switch between these two extends by using a variable or some thing like that.

For Example
I would like to be able to do this
$theClass = "classOne"
class SysThree extends $theClass // as you know .. we can't do this............... What should I do????
{

}

//MAZ

<?php
if($theClass == 'classone.php')
    class classThree extends classOne {
else
    class classThree extentds classTwo {
?>

Guys what do you think about drawmack's answer?

I think that's a silly reply to someone's offering help to your problem. His solution looks fine to me based on your description of the issue, anyways.

[mohausa]

so, you are saying that I can do this

//classone.php
<?php
class classOne
{
    function printTEST()
   {
        echo "TEST one";
   }
}
?>

//classtwo.php
<?php
class classTwo
{
    function printTEST()
   {
        echo "TEST two";
   }
}
?>

//classthree.php
<?php
$theClass = "classOne.php";
include $theClass;

if($theClass == 'classOne.php')
     class classThree extends classOne {

else 
     class classThree extends classTwo { 

function test()
{
    printTEST();
}

   test();

}
?>

thank you for your help drawmack
and thank you for your reply rebelo

I still need some solution for this problem

If you're going to use constructor functions, it would be tedious to do this in other than PHP5 (you'd need constructor functions for every possible parent).
Here's an idea.

class class1
{
	...
}

class class2
{
	...
}

$class=2;
if($class == 1)
	class class1_or_2 extends class1{}
else
	class class1_or_2 extends class2{}

class class3 extends class1_or_2
{
....
}

Oh, and P.S. Rather than ask "can I do this" and then list a pile of code, the culturally acceptable thing to do is try it and see.

Yes my favorite programming concept TITS - try it to see
