ID: 18864 Updated by: rasmus@php.net Reported By: fathireza@yahoo.com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Class/Object related Operating System: NT2000 PHP Version: 4.2.2 New Comment: There is absolutely no difference between: function b() { function c() { } } and: function b() { } function c() { } in terms of their calling scope. They are identical. It's not like function c won't be defined until function b is called in the first case. So what you are doing is meaningless. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-13 03:36:10] fathireza@yahoo.com "Why would you need this functionality?" does not really answer my question/problem. Anyhow there is a reason for it and I am developing some reusable classes for the project I am working on. Thanks... Anyhow ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-13 01:03:30] kalowsky@php.net Why would you need this functionality? Why not just create a second function within the class, and call it there? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-12 04:07:51] fathireza@yahoo.com Hello, I have no access to "this variable" within the nested function. class A{ var someX; function b() { function c() { $this->someX=1; //Error this variable unknow here } } } Best regards...
