Re: Can you serialize a Formbuilder object?

Hi, Andrew Wooldridge wrote:

But I did not call 'require_once' with the others, including all possible quickform elements are still __PHP_Incomplete_Class typed inside the formbuilder object : DB/DataObject/FormBuilder/QuickForm.php HTML/QuickForm/header.php HTML/QuickForm/hidden.php HTML/QuickForm/text.php Etc.... I require_once'd the /FormBuilder/QuickForm.php and that fixed Incomplete type error. Might there be a way to avoid requiring every single class used by quickform?

There is a way to automate [1] this requiring business: ========== unserialize_callback_func directive: It's possible to set a callback-function which will be called, if an undefined class should be instantiated during unserializing. (to prevent getting an incomplete object "__PHP_Incomplete_Class".) Use your php.ini, ini_set() or .htaccess to define 'unserialize_callback_func'. Everytime an undefined class should be instantiated, it'll be called. To disable this feature just empty this setting. Also note that the directive unserialize_callback_func directive became available in PHP 4.2.0. ========== Though I don't see the point in serializing a QuickForm object, since it is not designed to update its state on unserializing.
