Because static classes have no constructor I use this to initialize such classes. The function init will (if available) be called when you first use the class. The class must not be included before, otherwise the init-function wont be called as autoloading is not used. <?php function __autoload($class_name) { require_once(CLASSES_PATH.$class_name.'.cls.php'); if(method_exists($class_name,'init')) call_user_func(array($class_name,'init')); return true; } ?> I use it for example to establish the mysql-connection on demand. It is also possilbe do add a destructor by adding this lines to the function: <?php if(method_exists($class_name,'destruct')) register_shutdown_function(array($class_name,'destruct')); ?> --was-- Because static classes have no constructor I use this to initialize such classes.
