note 111857 added to reserved.variables.globals

I prefer accessing globals through static function calls. Source code looks better; I use glb::get('myglobalvar') instead of $GLOBALS['myglobalvar']. This gives me full control over global access, which can be the source of problems in practice. class glb { static public function set($name, $value) { $GLOBALS[$name] = $value; } static public function get($name) { return $GLOBALS[$name]; } } $myglobalvar = 'Hello, World !'; function myfunction() { $val = glb::get('myglobalvar'); echo "$val\n"; glb::set('myglobalvar', 'hi, again :)'); $val = glb::get('myglobalvar'); echo "$val\n"; } myfunction(); ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.199 Probable Submitter: 88.225.225.20 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.globals.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/111857 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111857/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111857/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111857/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111857/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111857/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111857/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111857 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/111857 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
