I would like to do something like this:
class example {
function print_a_list ( $an_array )
{.......}
function do_something {
{....
array_walk( fruits, "$this->print_a_list" );
....}
}
The error returned is
Warning: Unable to call () - function does not exist in inc\example_class.php
To get it working I have done this
class example {
function do_something {
{
if(!defined('PRINT_FUNCTION'))
{
define('PRINT_FUNCTION', TRUE);
function print_a_list ( $an_array )
{.......}
}
....
array_walk( fruits, "print_a_list" );
....
} //end do_something
} //end example class
The define is to stop errors when I call the do_something method more than once for a single
instance of the example class. If I don't it gives me a Cannot Redelare error.
This is not really perfect becasue I have to declare print_a_list twice if I want to use it outside
the do_something function. Plus the code is abit messy.
I've asked experts-exchange.com and studied the docs but I can find a way around it. I've
also tried it using php4 with the same results.
Thanks for your time,
Tim.
