ID: 24808
User updated by: Bertrand dot Willm at laposte dot net

It is quite nice to tell me to double-check the documentation, but I
don't see were it is written that the name given to __get and __set
methods can't correspond to private or protected members.
If it is not written, this could be nice to add that information in the
documentation.
Perhaps that for a clean programmation this is not a good idea to use
the same name for members and properties.
Anyway, after analisys, I found that the current implementation of
__get and __set is an unsatsifactory answer to properties. It is far
away from what is proposed in C#, Delphi (and of course C++ builder) or
visual basic.
To my knowledge, there is no equivalent in java or C++.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to
report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
Try this:
<?php
class CBaseClass {
private $var = 'default';
function get($name)
{
return $this->var;
}
}
$object = new CBaseClass();
echo $object->get('name');
?>

Description:
------------
I want to have access to private or protected member throw __get and
__set method to control the access or just to let a read access to this
member (and then __set is not used).
To do that I have to choose an other name for this property.
I can't use the same name as the private member.
PHP could test if there is __get or __set method and use them before
telling ther is an error.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class CBaseClass {
private $var = 'default';
function __get($name)
{
return $this->var;
}
}
$object = new CBaseClass();
echo $object->var;
?>
Expected result:
----------------
default
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Cannot access private property cbaseclass::$var in
c:\sitesweb\www\test.php5 on line 11
