Note Submitter: Anonymous ---- there are time we would like an object to self destruct if the initializing argument provided during object creation, dictate the object should exist at all. <?php class TestClass { private $have_girlfren=false; // private function __construct( $have_girlfren ) { echo "sixth day<br> "; $this->have_girlfren=$have_girlfren; $this->existenceRequirement(); } // private function existenceRequirement() { if( $have_girlfren==false ) { echo 'i want to die<br> '; $this->__destruct(); throw new Exception(); } } /////////////////////// function __destruct() { echo "i am dead<br> "; } ////////////////// static function getNewInstance( $have_girlfren) { try{ $new_obj=new TestClass( $have_girlfren); return $new_obj; } catch(Exception $e) { unset($new_obj); echo "rest in peace<br> "; return false; } } // function gotGirlFren() { return $this->have_girlfren; } } $test_obj=TestClass::getNewInstance( false ); if( $test_obj ) echo "bye test oby closing<br> "; else echo "instance commit suicide<br> "; echo "--------------<br> "; echo "-the end--"; ?>
