Re: Help with OOPHP

Dear Andrew, I think normaly it isn't possible to use another class in a class, without using extends. But you should use your array as a container. After you use as a container, you can make new instance into a array field. Now you can use the content of the container to administrate the instances of the complete class. I just changed some things at your example. Please have a look and ask if you have any questions. <?php class fruitBasket ext { private $fruits = array(); //this is a class Container public function addFruit($newFruit) {

     $this->fruits[] = new fruit($newFruit);

} public function makeAllApples() {

     foreach($this->fruits AS $fruit)
     {
       $fruit->changeName("apple");
     }

} public function showAllFruits() {

     foreach($this->fruits AS $fruit)
     {
       echo $fruit->showFruit()."<br>";
     }

} } class fruit { private $name; public function __construct($name) {

     $this->name = $name;

} public function changeName($newName) {

     $this->name = $newName;

} public function showFruit() {

     return $this->name;

} } $Cls = new fruitBasket(); $Cls->addFruit("test1"); $Cls->addFruit("test2"); $Cls->addFruit("test3"); $Cls->addFruit("test4"); $Cls->addFruit("test5"); $Cls->addFruit("test6"); $Cls->makeAllApples(); $Cls->showAllFruits(); ?> "Andrew Peterson" <gretschdrummer@gmail.com> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:49665EC3-28AF-4F97-A341-6962AB843C47@gmail.com...

I'm hoping you guys can help me out. I'm not sure if you can do this, but i'm trying to create a class that is build of another class. I also want to be able to do functions on the class1 from within class2. example: class fruitBasket{ private $fuit = array(); //this is a class public function addFruit($newFruit) { $this->fruitBasket[] = $newFruit(); } public makeAllApples() { foreach($this->fruit AS $value) { $value->changeName("apple"); } } } class fruit{ private $name; public __construct($name) { $this->name = $name; } public changeName($newName) { $this->name = $newName; } }
