PHP - Class And Function

Code: [Select]
class replayer extends users {
--SNIP--
public $islive = false;
--SNIP--
     function chat($id, $nick, $chat) {
          --SNIP--
          <-----------
     }
}
There's my code, I want to take the variable $islive from the above class and use it in the chat() function.

How would I do it? I've tried making it a global inside of the chat() function.

Hi,

I am using a separate class for all the functions. And using using the following function "objectToArray" to convert the JSON decoded object to Array.

Class file:
       

               class xyz
              {
                    . 
                    .
                    .
                    .
                    .

                    function objectToArray($d) {
         if (is_object($d)) {
       $d = get_object_vars($d);
                  }
         if (is_array($d)) {
     return array_map(__FUNCTION__, $d);
         }
         else {
     return $d;
         }
          }
                    .
                    .
                    .

          }
      


Main page:

          $obj = new xyz();

          $arr = $obj->objectToArray($json_obj);



Because the function "objectToArray" is recursive, array_map(__FUNCTION__, $d) is not able to applies the callback. And throws the warning "array_map() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback".

Need help!

Girish

can someone help me I am trying to call a class function using a varible.... example
say i go to index.php?page=contact i want to pull that class with out doing a switch statement can someone help me
Code: [Select]
<?php
$Site = page;
$Site->getPage($_GET['page']);
?>
Code: [Select]
<?php
class page extends site {

function getPage($page) {
return $this->$page;
}
function Contact() {
echo '<h2>Contact test</h2>';
echo '<form>

</form>';
}

}
?>

Is it possible to pass a callback function to other class's method?   Is what I am attempting to do a bad idea?   Thanks

<?php
class validate
{
    public function __construct($data,$callback)
    {
        //A bunch of script goes here, and I don't want to duplicate it
        if($callback) {
            //Use $callback function to modify $data
        }
    }
}

class controller
{
    public function savePage()
    {
        //A bunch of script goes here, and I don't want to duplicate it
        $validate=new validate(array('hello'),$this->callback);
    }
}

class controller_page1 extends controller
{
    public function callback()
    {
        //script which will be used to modify future $data
    }
}
?>

Hi I'm setting up my own framework for a project. I was coming to the point of completion and thought up of a new idea.

Is it possible to call a function like this from a class:


class myClass {

    function func($param)
    {
        echo "Hello world". $param;
    }

}

$class = 'myClass';
$func = "func(' It\'s time to partey!')";

$$class = new $class;
$$class->$func;


Thanks for any help!

How can I get specific array values outside a class or function? About to try "File put contents" I think. That should work right? So I thought the last couple times. Or what would you suggest?. Overwritten previous attempts to share =[

 

Next up is seeing if I can change $file to $var to change it from other locations. Should be easy I reckon.

Hi there people of the PHP forum,

This functions intention is to output the same code 4 digit code twice before generating a new one, I can get it to do one fine, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get it to repeat twice before changing on the third call.
 
private function KeyGen(){

$Numerical  = range(0,9);
$Alpha = range("A","Z");

$Keys = array_merge($Numerical, $Alpha);
return $Keys[rand(0,35)].$Keys[rand(0,35)].$Keys[rand(0,35)].$Keys[rand(0,35)];
}

I am needing it to do this so that each 'set' of 2 calls to the function (within the class) gives the same 4 digit code.  At the moment I am just making one call & then assigning that single call to a variable and then referencing that var twice, this is not what I want to do, but it scratches the itch for now...

Any idea's/other logic would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Rw

I have 2 php files. I am unable to get B's global variable from A's static method:

A.php
Code: [Select]
class c_A
  { public static function f_A()
      { include_once( "B.php" ) ;
        print f_B() ;
      }
  }
c_A::f_A( ); // only prints "B : "

B.php
Code: [Select]
$gvs = "global variable from B" ;

function f_B()
  { return "B : " . $GLOBALS[ "gvs" ] ;
  }


any thoughts?


thanks,
Shannon

Hello,   I am having some troubles and was hoping someone could guide me through it.   Q: When ever I try call my get_status function all I get is a white page of nothing, no errors to work from etc... Can anyone here see what I am doing wrong?     PATH: index.php   NOTICE //<<-- KILLS PAGE

Kind regards and thank you.        

I've added a CSS class to the main menu of a Wordpress site and wish to remove the class if the browser width drops below a certain number. I've tried a number of different approaches but none has worked.    Some examples:   $(document).ready(function() {

Imagine 6 PHP classes (one each for a product line), that have very similar coding structures, that go like this:

//function that computes stuff inside each of 6 files:
//they vary slightly from file to file but essentially it is this:
function computeFunction
{
    $this->x = new X();

    $this->x->calcD();

    if ($this->x->dOk)
    {
        $this->x->calcE();
        $this->x->calcN();   
    }

    //more complicated logic that is essentially like above

    //and by the way!
    print $this->x->someVarThatIsUsedLater;
}

Then there is a single class like so :

class X
{
    function calcD()
    {
        //compute some condition

        if (<computed condition is met>) $this->dOk = true;
        else $this->dOk = false;

        //and by the way
        $this->someVarThatIsUsedLater = 4;
    }
}

Just to bring your attention to it, none of these functions return any result or value, but they nevertheless operate on variables of key interest via side-effects.  That is, they modify variables that essentially act like globals, and then use those variables later ($this->dOk and $this->someVarThatIsUsedLater are one more prominent examples).   I need to untangle this mess.  And make it clean and clear again, and make sense.  How do I best proceed?   I have been wrestling with some ideas... like $this->dOk, can within reason be turned into a return variable of calcD() function, and then be tested against like if ($this->x->calcD()) and I think it will be reasonable enough.  But then there are other functions that don't return anything and just act on variables via side-effects anyway so $this->dOk is one of the lesser troubles...   Other than that, what I am thinking of doing is getting rid of these mini-functions (calcE(),  calcN(), etc.), removing them as a funciton, and putting their body directly into the code, as a first step to refactor.  Many of the computations done inside are just a few lines of code anyway, and the functions kind of hide a lot of side-effects that happen, instead of actually encapsulating the behavior.  So while it may be counter-intuitive to dismantle the functions that appear to be doing something that normally can be encapsulated (computing key variables E, N, etc), I think dismantling them will actually clean things up as far as collecting all the side-effects inside a single parent function thereby making them more visible.   Caveat:  while doing so I will end up with 6 copies of untangled dismantled functions, because dismantling class X and putting its content into each of the 6 product line classes will have that effect.   But my hope is that from that point I will see more clearly to start identifying places where I can start to truly encapsulating the behavior via various structures, instead of masking it.   Problems / Questions: I would like to but I am not entirely sure that I can skip that step of dismantling functions & the 6x multiplying effect. It's probably the same like skipping steps in solving polynomial equations.  Some can do it and some need to list each step of their work. And I am not entirely sure what structures I can replace it with in the end after I dismantle the functions. It also looks like a lot of work.  Is there a better way? P.S. I already put tests on computeFunction() for each product line so I can be less paranoid about hacking stuff up.

Hi

I am in the process of converting to Object Oriented from Procedural. To cater for this I have built an admin_login function, contained within a class: 'siteFunctions'.

However, I am having trouble pointing the admin form to the function correctly.

Every time I click 'submit', the form does not process anything. It doesn't even 'think' about it i.e. show the egg timer....

I have built this script heaps of times using the procedural method, so I guess I am somehow doing something wrong with respect to referencing the action attribute of the form (due to my new approach).

I am very new to OO so please go easy on me: I know the script isn't particularly advanced. I just want to get used to putting functions into classes, and then calling the code, before I move onto more advanced stuff.

I have placed all of the files within the same folder in order to rule out driectory path issues.

Here are the three scripts that I think are relevant (login, functionsClass, and the mysql connection script):

Login

 
$pageTitle = "Admin Login";
include("admin_header.php");
include_once("sitefunctions.php");
new siteFunctions();
echo '<div class="admin_main_body">';   


       <form action="<?php echo htmlentities($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]);?>" method='post'>
       <input type="text" name="username" id="username" size="20">
       <label>Username</label><br />
       <input type="password" name="password" id="password" size="20">
       <label>Password</label><br />
       <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="submit">

now who can tell me what is wrong with the function filter_var() method on line 186 in ump.class.php?  

I have mysqli object in Database class base:

[color=]database class:[/color]

class Database {
  private $dbLink = null;
  
  public function __construct() {
    if (is_null($this->dbLink)) {
      // load db information  to connect
      $init_array = parse_ini_file("../init.ini.inc", true);
      $this->dbLink = new mysqli($init_array['database']['host'],
                           $init_array['database']['usr'],
                           $init_array['database']['pwd'],
                           $init_array['database']['db']);
  
      if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
        $this->dbLink = null;
      }
    }
  }

  public function __destruct() {
    $this->dbLink->close();
  }
}


Class derived is Articles where I use object dBLink in base (or parent) class and I can't access to mysqli methods (dbLink member of base class):

Articles class:

require_once ('./includes/db.inc');

class Articles extends Database{
  private $id,
              ....
              ....
             $visible = null;
  
  public function __construct() {
    // Set date as 2009-07-08 07:35:00
    $this->lastUpdDate = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
    $this->creationDate = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
  }
  
  // Setter
  ....
  ....

  // Getter
  ....
  ....

  public function getArticlesByPosition($numArticles) {
    if ($result = $this->dbLink->query('SELECT * FROM articles ORDER BY position LIMIT '.$numArticles)) {
      $i = 0;
      while ($ret = $result->fetch_array(MYSQLI_ASSOC)) {
        $arts[$i] = $ret;
      }
      $result->close();
      return $arts;
    }
  }
}


In my front page php I use article class:


include_once('./includes/articles.inc');
$articlesObj = new articles();
$articles = $articlesObj->getArticlesByPosition(1);
var_dump($articles);
