note 62096 added to ref.classobj

zabmilenko - here is a solution that expands on the one provided by ia using the factory pattery, this is in PHP 4.1, rewrite it to properly use an interface for DB instead of extending it. Learn patterns, they rock.

<?php

// This should be an interface in PHP 5 or an abstract 
// interface or something
class DB
{
 var $connection ;
 function Connect() {} 
}


// This should implement DB in php 5
class dbMySQL extends DB
{
 function Connect() {...}
}

class dbPGSQL extends DB
{
 function Connect() {...}
}


class DBFactory
{
 function &Create( $dbType )
 {
 switch( $dbType )
 {
 case 'MySQL':
 return new dbMySQL() ;
 break ;

 case 'PGSQL':
 return new dbPGSQL() ;
 break ;

 default:
 die( 'bad dog! bad!') ;
 }
 }
}


$db = & DBFactory::Create( 'MySQL' ) ;
