My problem was, to write a class-method, that destroyes the class itself. After many hours I found
the (assured) only possibility to implement this:
class A {
function A() {
}
function DESTROY() {
// this would not work:
// unset($this);
// but this:
settype(&$this, 'null');
}
}
This test-code worked on PHP 4.3.1:
$objA = new A();
var_dump($objA); // Object...
$objA -> DESTROY();
var_dump($objA); // NULL !!!
hth,
Niels
