note 43837 added to ref.classobj

As programmers, you're probably more organized than me, but, I do try and maintain some order in my classes and codes and separate them in "packages" as in java. This helped me keep them organized but caused havok when trying to use them, so what I did was to create a class that handles the loading of classes (which I instanciate in all pages) along with my error handling class all bundled up. This way, I can load my classes with a command similar to $baseClass->loadClass("package","className"[,"constructor"]); the function responsible for this has some checking to see if they are loaded and stuff like that... function loadClass($packageName,$className,$constructor=""){ // if you dont have a constructor declare any function inside // the class if ($constructor==""){ $constructor=$className; } if(!is_callable(array($className,$constructor))){ if (defined("CLASS_DIR")){ $pkg = CLASS_DIR.$packageName."/"; if (is_dir($pkg)){ // we have a directory with the package name $cls = $pkg.$className.".class.php"; if(is_file($cls)){ // we have a file include_once($cls); }else{ die("Class <b>$className</b> could not be found in package <b>$packageName</b> , please check your instalation"); } }else{ die("Package <b>$packageName</b> could not be found, please check your instalation"); } } } } Just remember to define CLASS_DIR as the physical path for the directories where you packages are... Hope this comes in handy... Here's an example of a diretory strucutre... /var/www/classes/ <- this would be CLASS_DIR in there I have: package1/ name.class.php name2.class.php .... The loadClass would look like: loadClass("package1","name"); Cute and easy ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.classobj.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+43837 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+43837&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+43837&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
