PHP - Connection Between Classes
Hi,
I'm trying to write my first MVC framework for my college project and faced this problem: i have main framework class, and have this loader class, that loads view files and libraries. Now, how can I do that when I load library, I could reach it from my main class? For example: in main class goes this code: Code: [Select] public $load; function __construct ( ) { $this->load = new Loader; } function someFunction ( ) { $this->load->library('someLibrary'); // and now reach the library like this $this->someLibrary->functionInLibrary(); } The idea is from codeigniter, so if anyone has used this framework will understand my question. Similar TutorialsI have a class and a lot of the function in the class require a connection to a MySQL database. At the moment I am using the "__construct()" to connect to the database each time a new instance of the classes is created. Is this the best way to do it or should I have a separate class for connection to the database? Just wanted to get an idea of what other people do. Thanks for any help. I've been spending long hours learning about classes and their magic methods. I just came across a tutorial which showed a constructor like this:
class Device { //... public function __construct(Battery $battery, $name) { // $battery can only be a valid Battery object $this->battery = $battery; $this->name = $name; // connect to the network $this->connect(); } //... }the Battery part instantly caught my attention. Here had previously made a Battery class (and a more complete Device class) but the next thing he did really caught my interest: $device = new Device(new Battery(), 'iMagic'); // iMagic connected echo $device->name; // iMagicwhat the hell is going on here? Is this another way to include the methods and properties of one class into another class, in order words is this the same thing as: class Device extends BatteryI don't think so because this new Battery() thing looks more like its creating an object inside the Device object. Previously the only way I could to that was to type $battery = new Battery() inside one of my methods. But this looks like hes doing something different. Can anyone explain whats going on here? The whole tutorial is he http://code.tutsplus...-php--net-13085 in the main Device method he has a premade $battery variable to hold the Battery object. Sometimes I have multiple classes containing functions which I'd like to include in my main class. I can only extend one class, so I usually extent a class containing only properties, no methods. I still don't know what difference making that info class abstract is, I'd appreciate if anyone could tell me. Also I'd love to know what the point in static methods is. I've never used them because I've never seen the point. Is it just to make it easier to call the methods because you don't need to create an object instance to call them? Sorry for the extra questions, the first one is what I'm really wondering about. Not sure how to describe what I'm trying to do here in the title, but here goes with what I am trying to accomplish. I've got a few hundred lines of code in total so far, so I'll try to keep it as short as I can. I've got an application that I am programming using classes for each module and right now I am coding the base classes that I need in order for it to run (database, errors, logging, etc). What I'm doing for my database class is I have a query factory and it extends the MySQLi class so I can process, clean and code the rest of my app faster. I also have another, unrelated class "Error", which will be used for processing errors I might come across. I'd rather do it this way instead of having to call trigger_error and error_log every time there is an error. I'd also not like to have to call a new instance of an object every time I need to use something from that class. Is there any way I can call a class within a class and return it as an object for all the methods within the class? I've tried the methods below, but no luck I've tried others, but I'm trying to keep it brief and get what I'm trying to do across. <?php class QueryFactory extends MySQLi { public $err = new error(); //Doesn't work. public $err = error(); //Nope. #This is the function that I need the $err object for. function set($fields, $newvals) { if ( is_array($fields) && is_array($newvals) ) { if ( count($fields) != count($newvals) ) { //Instead of below, I want to do something like $err->('Array lengths must match for method', 256, $islogged = 1); trigger_error('Array lengths must match for method', 256); } } } } The thing is, I have a "run.inc.php" which does include and create new objects for running just the basic app and if I try to redeclare the error class in query.class.php, it gives me an error saying I can't do that, but if i try to call $err from the page that has all the classes defined it throws an error saying that my method is undeclared. I'd like my error class be available to every other class I create so I can display and log errors as needed. Any suggestions or links to point me where I'd like to go? Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\connect\index.php on line 10 Hallo I am beginner and starting to learn php I got this message when I want to connect with server. Can I get some suggestion what to do? Thanks Hi! I got the following problem... I have a SQL 2005 Server in a VPN. For security reasons,internet access to the database server is only possible for VPN members. Now i want to connect to the openvpn Server from my webserver in order to connect to the database for some webreports. How can i achieve this using php? thanks Hi Guys, need a little help and drawn a blank. The code that is not working is below $result = $conn->query("SELECT * FROM MK_migration_details WHERE mig_bid='".$_SESSION['bid']."'"); I can confirm theĀ $_SESSION['bid'] is working as echo's out on another part of the page. and the above $result works when i manually type the search criteria like below. $result = $conn->query("SELECT * FROM MK_migration_details WHERE mig_bid='300101'"); Basically no result turn up on the page. Any ideas or advise how I can diagnose? HI fellow programmers, Can i connect a textbox to a field in the MySql using the id of the text box? If yes, can u show me a small example. Thanks RAM Hi All, I have a landing page that I use, but often my sql database is too busy or gets overwhelmed and then the landing page just stalls and traffic is lost. Here it is: Code: [Select] <?php //ini_set("display_errors",1); if(!$src) $src = $q; define("__EXEC_", 1); include("config.php"); include("custom.php"); function lsp_visit_find($__val, &$__uid) { global $u; global $db; $l_campaign = array("campaign_id"=>"", "url"=>"", "cost"=>"0.00", "name"=>"-", "ad_keyword"=>"", "mapped_keyword"=>""); $l_visit = array(); $q = $_GET['q']; $src = $_GET['src']; // for STAGE #1 (visit definition): get cost, ad keyword, mapped keyword. $l_campaign['name'] = "info"; $l_campaign['mapped_keyword'] = "$q"; $l_campaign['ad_keyword'] = "$src"; $l_campaign['cost'] = ".02"; // get referer (campaign URL). if no campaign found, - create it! if (!empty($l_campaign['name'])) { $r = mysql_query("select campaign_id,name from campaign where name='$l_campaign[name]'"); if (!mysql_affected_rows($db)) { $r = mysql_query("insert into campaign(name,cost, creation_date,last_update_date) values('$l_campaign[name]',$l_campaign[cost], unix_timestamp(),unix_timestamp())"); $l_campaign['campaign_id'] = mysql_insert_id($db); } else { $w = mysql_fetch_assoc($r); $l_campaign = array_merge($l_campaign,$w); } } // check, whether we had visits from this IP for this keywords within 2 minutes. // if we have one, get its ID, otherwise - create new! $visit_id=""; if (!empty($l_campaign['ad_keyword']) && !empty($l_campaign['mapped_keyword']) ) { $ip = get_real_ip(); $r = mysql_query("select visit_id,uid,campaign_id,ad_keyword,mapped_keyword from visit where ip='$ip' and ad_keyword='$l_campaign[ad_keyword]' and mapped_keyword='$l_campaign[mapped_keyword]' and currtime>=from_unixtime(".(time()-120).") limit 1"); if (!mysql_affected_rows()) { $__uid = md5($ip.time().$l_campaign['campaign_id']); $x = mysql_query("insert into visit(ip,uid,cost,currtime,campaign_id,ad_keyword,mapped_keyword) values('$ip','$__uid',$l_campaign[cost],now(),$l_campaign[campaign_id],'$l_campaign[ad_keyword]','$l_campaign[mapped_keyword]')"); $visit_id = mysql_insert_id($db); } else { $l_visit = mysql_fetch_assoc($r); $visit_id = $l_visit['visit_id']; $__uid = $l_visit['uid']; } return $visit_id; } } $db = mysql_connect(__CFG_HOSTNAME, __CFG_USERNAME, __CFG_PASSWORD); mysql_select_db(__CFG_DATABASE, $db); $u = isset($_GET['u'])? $_GET['u'] : 2; $uid = ""; $visit_id = lsp_visit_find($_REQUEST['l'], $uid); if (!empty($visit_id)) { setcookie("x_uid", base64_encode($visit_id."QQ".$uid), time() + 3600); } global $q; mysql_close($db); $q = $_GET['q']; $src = $_GET['src']; header("Location: http://www.mydomain.com/search/?q=$q"); exit(); ?> My question is how do I code it so that if after 5 seconds or so, or the connection can't be made, it just terminates the connection and auto loads the header redirect at the bottom of the page? Thanks! Hello All, I am fairly new to PHP class development, and I was wondering if it is normal behaviour to see classes not being able to access global variables related to PHP-based requests ($_GET, $_SESSION, etc.)? I seem to either have to use "global <var>" inside of the class to access the data, or I am forced to change the methods so then such required data is passed in as parameters. Perhaps I am just doing something wrong? Here is an example of what I mean: class Something { function aFunc() { if (isset($_SESSION['somedata'])) { return false; } // this always returns false whether I had set the value or not } function bFunc() { global $_SESSION; // figured this would already be in a global accessible scope if (isset($_SESSION['somedata'])) { return false; } // now this will return false only when the value is set } } Now the above example is commented to demonstrate what I was meaning above, and I was wondering if this was the 'norm' when developing classes for PHP (and thus such values should be passed as parameters)? Thanks! ini_set('display_errors', 1); error_reporting(E_ALL); class A { private function operation1() //only be used inside this class { echo 'operation1 called'; } protected function operation2() //only inside this class { echo 'operation2 called'; } public function operation3() //public can be used in any class { echo 'operation3 called'; } } class B extends A { function _construct() { //$this->operation1(); //$this ->operation2(); $this->operation3(); } } $b = new B; can someone please tell me why this code doesn't work ? Hi. I want to know how I access calsses in PHP. I mean how I search for class that I want and need. do I need to search in php.net? and what editors that provide access the the whole php classes and who they keep updated? Cheers. Take the following example: <?php class a { var $things; public function __construct($stuff) { $this->things = $stuff; } } class b { var $morethings; $this->morethings = "something"; } $c = new a(new b); echo $c->things->__PARENT__; ?> The line "echo $c->things->__PARENT__;" (as you can probably imagine) does not work. How would I output what the 'b' object is stored in ('a')? How can i get my class to be showed on the front page here is the front page <?php require('ex2.php'); $start = new A(); $tart->Display(); ?> now here is ex2.php <?php ini_set('display_errors', 1); error_reporting(E_ALL); class A { public $title = "test1"; public $end = "test2"; } function __set($name, $value) { $this->$name = $value; } function Display() { echo $title; echo $end; } ?> shoudn't this print test1 and test2 ? If I have defined an instance of a class in one script how do I then use this same instance and the same variable in other scripts? For example say I have this code in a file called "index.php" include("myclass.class.php"); $myclass = new myClass; $myclass->$variable = "hello world"; However if I then have this code in a file called "page1.php" when I try to access the same variable it is empty. include("myclass.class.php"); echo($myclass->$variable) How can I use the same instance of this class across all files keep the variable values the same? Thanks for any help. I have just start using PHP classes and was wondering how you continue an instance of a class in another file. For example I have a folder called "includes" where I includes files that I send data to when I perform ajax request. However how do I continue an instance of class in these files? Hope that makes sense. Thanks for any help. Hi, I want to build a simple calculator class and one of the function is to calculate the factorial, but for some reason I cannot get this to work. Here is class: ========= Code: [Select] <?php class Calculator { function factorial($n) { if($n==1) return 1; else return factorial($n-1)*$n; } }//END CLASS Calculator $calculator=new Calculator(); print $calculator->factorial(3); ?> But it doesn't work, I know this is simple but I am a little rusty with object oriented programming. I'd appreciated any help! Hello, maybe back to basics, but [PHP] pobierz, plaintext Hi there,
This might a newbie question but I need help understanding PHP classes which am currently learning.
I have an index page.
With this three included files.
database.php
config.php
account.php
on database.php, the class is declared using $connection new Database(...), on this page is also all the coding for this class.
In config.php is a declared class of $account new Account($user_id);
and on account.php is all the details for the account class.
on the index.php is echo $account->sayHello;
However, My page is throwing out an error because I'm trying to use $connection->query(..) in my account.php / Account class.
I have tried to extend the Account class with Database but still have no luck.
How can I make sure the I can use a class function from another page in my Account class?
Thanks for reading
im currently doing a large php project and i am confident i can do it. Its a basic forum like phpbb or mybb where users can download the files and instal. however i have looked through their code and i see they use classes. I have never learned to do classes since i havent had to use them yet. should i be using them now for this project? do i need to? and if so then what are the benefits? |
