PHP - Autloader Class Constuctor (not Loading)

Ok. I know you can pass the object of a class as an argument. Example:


class A {
    function test() {
        echo "This is TEST from class A";
    }
}


class B {
    function __construct( $obj ) {
        $this->a = $obj;
    }

    function test() {
       $this->a->test();
    }

}


Then you could do:

$a = new A();
$b = new B($a);


Ok so that's one way i know of.

I also thought that you could make a method static, and do this: (assuming class A's test is 'static')

class B {
    function test() {
       A::test(); 
   }
}


But that is not working.


I'd like to know all possible ways of accomplishing this. Any hints are appreciated. thanks

If a class has a constructor but also has a static method, if I call the static method does the constructor run so that I can use an output from the constructor in my static method?

Hi

Can you call Class A's methods or properties from Class B's methods?

Thanks.

Hi,

I need to be able to call a class based on variables.  E.G.

I would normally do:
Code: [Select]
$action = new pattern1()
but i would like to be able to do it dynamicaly:
Code: [Select]
$patNum = 1;
$action = new pattern.$patNum.()
Im wondering if that's possible?  If so what would the correct syntax be?

Many Thanks.

I have two classes:

## Admin.php

<?php
class Admin
{
public function __construct()
{
include("Config.php");
}

/**
* deletes a client
* @returns true or false
*/
function deleteClient($id)
{
return mysql_query("DELETE FROM usernames WHERE id = '$id'");
}
}
?>


## Projects.php

<?php
class Projects
{
public function __construct()
{
include("Config.php");
$this->admin = $admin;
$this->dataFolder = $dataFolder;
}

/**
* Deletes a project
* @returns true or false
*/
function deleteProject($id)
{
$root  = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];
$theDir  = $root . $this->dataFolder;
$sql  = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM projectData WHERE proj_id = '$id'");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql))
{
$mainFile = $row['path'];
$thumb = $row['thumbnail'];
if ($thumb != 'null')
{
unlink($theDir . "/" . substr($thumb,13));
}
unlink($theDir . "/" . substr($mainFile,13));
}
$delete = mysql_query("DELETE FROM projectData WHERE proj_id = '$id'");
$getDir = mysql_query("SELECT proj_path FROM projects WHERE id = '$id'");
$res = mysql_fetch_array($getDir);
rmdir($theDir . "/" . $res['proj_path']);
return mysql_query("DELETE FROM projects WHERE id = '$id'");
}
}
?>


How can I call deleteProject() from within Admin.php?

Hi people!

class FirstOne{

public function FunctionOne($FirstInput){
//do stuff and output value
return $value1;
}

}


Then:-


class SecondOne{

public function FunctionTwo($AnotherInput){
//do stuff and output value
return $value2;
}

}


What I want to know is this, if I want to use FunctionOne() in Class SecondOne do I do it like this:-

(Assume as I have instantiated the first class using $Test = new FirstOne(); )


class SecondOne{

function SecondedFunction(){
global $Test;
return $Test->FunctionOne();
}

public function FunctionTwo($AnotherInput){
//do stuff and output value
return $value2;
}

public function FunctionThree(){

//some code here
$this->Test->SecondedFunction();<--I think as I can omit the $this-> reference
}
}


My point is: Do I have to do it this way or is there way of having this done through __construct() that would negate the need for a third party function?

I have a version working, I just think that it is a little convoluted in the way as I have done it, so I thought I would ask you guys.

Any help/advice is appreciated.

Cheers

How does one go about using one class inside another?

For example, building a class that does some series of functions, and uses a db abstraction layer class in the process?

Hi all,

I have two classes. Registration and Connection.

Inside a registration.php I include my header.php, which then includes my connection.php...

So all the classes should be declared when the page is loaded.

This is my code:


registration.php:

<?php include ('assets/header.php'); ?> 
        
    <?php
        class registration{                    
            public $fields = array("username", "email", "password");
            public $data = array();
            public $table = "users";
            public $dateTime = "";
            public $datePos = 0;
            public $dateEntryName = "date";
            
            function timeStamp(){
                return($this->dateTime = date("Y-m-d H:i:s"));
            }
            
            function insertRow($data, $table){      
                    
                    foreach($this->fields as $key => $value){
                        mysql_query("INSERT INTO graphs ($this->fields)
                        VALUES ('$data[$key]')");
                    }
                    
                    mysql_close($connection->connect);
            }
            
            function validateFields(){
            
                $connection = new connection(); 
                $connection->connect();
                        
                foreach($this->fields as $key => $value){
                    array_push($this->data, $_POST[$this->fields[$key]]);
                }
                $this->dateTime = $this->timeStamp();
                array_unshift($this->data, $this->dateTime);                
                array_unshift($this->fields, $this->dateEntryName);   
                
                foreach($this->data as $value){
                    echo "$value";
                }
                
                $this->insertRow($this->data, $this->table);
            }
        }
        
        $registration = new registration();
        $registration->validateFields();
    ?>

<?php include ('assets/footer.php'); ?>



At this point I cannot find my connection class defined on another included/included page.



                $connection = new connection(); 
                $connection->connect;





config.php (included within header.php)

<?
    class connection{ 
        public $dbname = '**';   
        public $dbHost = '**';
        public $dbUser = '**';
        public $dbPass = '**';
        public $connect;
        
        function connect(){
            $this->connect = mysql_connect($this->dbHost, $this->dbUser, $this->dbPass) or die ('Error connecting to mysql');
            mysql_select_db($this->dbname, $this->connect);
        }
    }
?>



Any ideas how to call it properly?

I do know how to do this but I am curious about whether or not there is a "preferred" way to do this. I know there are a couple ways to use a class (I'll call Alpha_Class) within another class (I'll class Beta_Class)

Let's say we have this simple class (Beta_Class):

class beta {
    function foo(){
    
    }
}


If I wanted to use the Alpha Class within the Beta Class, I could any number of things. For example:

class beta {
    function foo(){
        $this->alpha = new alpha;
        //$this->alpha->bar();
    }
}


Or you could simply use the $GLOBALS array to store instantiated objects in:

$GLOBALS['alpha'] = new alpha;
class beta {
    function foo(){
        //GLOBALS['alpha']->bar();
    }
}


You could even declare Alpha_Class as a static class and thus would not need to be instantiated:

static class alpha {
    static function bar(){}
}

class beta {
    function foo(){
        //alpha::bar();
    }
}


Those are the only ways I can think of right now. Are there any other ways to accomplish this? I was wondering which way is the best in terms of readability and maintainability.

I have a class in which I have a function called connection. I am now trying to call this function from another class, but it will not work. It works if I put the code in from the other function rather than calling it but that defeats the purpous.

class locationbox

{
   function location()
   {
   
   
   $databaseconnect = new databaseconnect();
         $databaseconnect -> connection();{

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM locations");

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) // line that now gets the error, mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given //in
  {
  echo "<option>" . $row['location'] . "</option>";
    }
   
}
}}

Well the title may seem a bit confusing, but heres an example:

Code: [Select]
<?php
class User{
   public $uid;
   public $username;
   protected $password;
   protected $email;
   public $usergroup;
   public $profile;
   

  public function __construct($id){
      // constructor code inside
  }

  public function getemail(){
      return $this->email;
  } 
   
  public function getusergroup(){
      return $this->usergroup;
  }

  public function getprofile(){
      $this->profile = new UserProfile($this->uid);
  }
}

class UserProfile(){
   protected $avatar;
   protected $bio;
   protected $gender;
   protected $favcolor;
   

  public function __construct($id){
      // constructor code inside
  }

  public function formatavatar(){
      // avatar formatting code inside
  }

  public function formatusername(){
      // format username?
  } 
}
?>

As you can see, the User class(an outer class) has a property called Profile, which can be instantiated as a UserProfile object(an inner class). The two objects have distinct functionalities, but there are times when the UserProfile object needs to access property and methods from the user object. I know its easy for outer class to access methods from inner class by using the single arrow access operator twice, but how about the other way around?

Lets say from the above example the userprofile can format the username displayed to the screen by adding a sun to the left of the username if the usergroup is admin, a moon if the usergroup is mod, and nothing if its just a member. The usergroup property is stored in the outer class, and can be accessed with this $user->getusergroup() method only. I know I can always do the hard way by passing a user object to the method's argument, but is there an easier way for the inner class UserProfile to access properties/methods for outerclass User? If so, how can I achieve that?

I got problem with one of my php page. Mozilla browser keeps on loading although it shows the page, i am not really sure which part is wrong. But i don't find any problem with other browsers lol.

Hey guys,

Problem: php script keeps loading and i dont know why.

What I've done so far is commenting out line-by-line so I found out that the problem is somewhere he
Code: [Select]
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="inner">
<div id="top">
<?php require 'basic/logo.php';?>
<?php require 'basic/header.php';?>
</div>
its not working - keeps loading.
Commenting out the 'required' stuff it works...

error_reporting(E_ALL);
is on... what the hell is the problem?!
the files are there in /basic.

Just dont know any further!

Yesterday PHP on WAMP was working perfectly. So I shutdown the computer, go to sleep, and wake up and turn WAMP on. But for some odd reason, when none of my PHP files are loading properly. It just shows all the code as if it were a .txt file.

Any reasons for this?
