note 95569 added to language.oop5.decon

Please be aware of when using __destruct() in which you are unsetting variables... Consider the following code: <?php class my_class { public $error_reporting = false; function __construct($error_reporting = false) { $this->error_reporting = $error_reporting; } function __destruct() { if($this->error_reporting === true) $this->show_report(); unset($this->error_reporting); } ?> The above will result in an error: Notice: Undefined property: my_class::$error_reporting in my_class.php on line 10 It appears as though the variable will be unset BEFORE it actually can execute the if statement. Removing the unset will fix this. It's not needed anyways as PHP will release everything anyways, but just in case you run across this, you know why ;) ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 75.186.62.40 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.decon.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/95569 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95569/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95569/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95569/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95569/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95569/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95569/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95569 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/95569 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
