Re: working with class inheritance

I forgot to mention that I have some __construct operations in the parent class, and I want to add to those (and overwrite sometimes) in the child class __construct .... i.e Parent class __construct $this->foo = 'Bar'; $this->foo2 = '10'; Child class __construct $this->foo.='Bar'; $this->foo2 .= rand(1,6); $this->type = 'Child'; Outputs of variables foo == Bar Bar foo2 == 11-16 type == Child Thanks :) ""Jeff Taylor"" <jefftaylor@optusnet.com.au> wrote in message news:4F.F2.40101.20D9FF54@pb1.pair.com... > OOPS!... typo > > Please replace implements with extends: > > class Child extends Parent > > Sorry about that > ""Jeff Taylor"" <jefftaylor@optusnet.com.au> wrote in message > news:A1.92.40101.DAC9FF54@pb1.pair.com... > > Hey all, got a slight problem, where for some reasons my variables dont > seem > > to be getting stored in the child class: > > > > e.g > > > > class Parent > > { > > $private type; > > > > public function __construct() > > { > > } > > > > public function GetType() > > { > > return $this->type; > > } > > } > > > > class Child implements Parent > > { > > $public function __construct() > > > > > > $this->type= 'Child'; > > } > > } > > > > $Child= new Child(); > > echo $Child->getType; > > > > Can u see any reason why the type would return null? > > > > Thanks, > > > > Jeff > >
