PHP-OOP - Error help on Enterprise Module code

OldManRiver

All,

Pulled the PHP code from the "Enterprise Modules" site which was advertised as "Not tested, Concept only" and really like the idea there.

I especially like the Database IO, as you can see the markers in the code to support any DB engine, so wanting to get the code working.

I had lot's of errors originally so trying to work through them and now stumped. Posted both the call file "test_dio.php" and the "em_dio.php" on PasteBin at:

http://pastebin.com/qJm0TesE

I'm getting the error:

Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in /var/www/Work/Video+/Code & Source/em_dio.php on line 198

which is coming from the "IF" code:

			if (!$this->linked) { 				$this->linked = self::dbConnect(); 			}  // end if !linked

I'm missing something here on the public declaration of this var, which is to be used over and over throughout this file.

Would appreciate all help!

Thanks!

I'm unable to view your code (pastebin is not responding), but basically there are two possibilities:

(a) The line of code in question is not within a class's method definitions.

(b) The line of code in question is in a method, but is being called statically (via the :: operator), in which case you need to use "self::" instead of "$this->" (and the method should be defined as being "static").

NogDog,

Not the world's best OOP guy and was thinking about the "self::" declaration, but was thinking that was only for calling methods, not vars.

But what do I know?

Cheers!

All,

Finally got it working, and update the PB at: http://pastebin.com/qJm0TesE

lines #29-36 should be replaced with dbFetch method but haven't finished this part yet.

Thanks all for the inputs and help!
