Is there a way to catch EVERY method of a inheritance class? something like this... class Father { public function __call ($name, $args) { $this->doSomethingBefore(); if ( method_exists($this, $name) ) return $this->$name($args); else echo 'invalid method'; } public function doSomethingBefore () { echo 'something before called method'; } } class Son extends Father { public function insert () { echo 'inserting'; } } $johnDoe = new Son(); $johnDoe->insert(); /* -- Expected return: something before called method inserting */ $johnDoe->foo(); /* -- Expected return: something before called method invalid method */ Greetings... -- Maximiliano Churichi <mchurichi@gmail.com>
