Constructors return the object, correct? If so, how can I do this:
class Bob {
private $blah;
_construct( $blah ) {
$this->blah = $blah;
}
public getBlah() {
return $this->blah;
}
}
echo Bob( 'Hello!' )->getBlah();
When I try that, I get the message "Undefined function Bob". I've also tried
echo new Bob( 'Hello!' )->getBlah();
echo (new Bob( 'Hello!' ))->getBlah();
but PHP didn't like either of those at all. Is it just not possible
what I'm trying to do?
I'm using PHP5.2.1
thnx,
Chris
