It should be noted, that calling spl_autoload_call on a child class, and then on its parent class, throws a fatal error. This happens because autoloading the child class also loads the class it extends. And since spl_autoload_call forcibly calls the registered autoload function(s), not taking into account whether the class exists, a fatal error is thrown: File: child.class.php <?php class Child extends Parent () { public function __construct () { parent::__construct(); } } ?> File: parent.class.php <?php class Parent () { public function __construct () { } } ?> File: autoload.php <?php /* works fine */ spl_autoload_call('Child'); /* throws: Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class Parent in /parent.class.php on line 2 */ spl_autoload_call('Parent'); ?> ---- Server IP: 195.184.96.15 Probable Submitter: 194.255.21.200 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.spl-autoload-call.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/102202 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102202/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102202/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102202/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102202/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102202/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102202/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102202 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/102202 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
