Re: Usage of BD.php inside a class

Thanks Marcus, I see.. this is far too complex for me. I was interested in pear because I wanted to make the sites I develop database independant.. I'll wait for the tutorials and doc to be ready (I'm not in such a hurry).. Thanks again for your time Luc At 06:06 14/04/01 +0200, Markus Fischer wrote:

        If you have

        class foobar {

                function somefunc() {

                        $db = DB::connect( 'blabla');

Then note that '$db' is local known to 'somefunc()' _only_ ! In this case $db != $this->db ! If you want to keep the handle known to the class, just assign it initially to $this->db :

        class myclass {

                function makeConnection() {

                        $this->db = DB::connect( '...');
                        .
                        .
                        $this->db->query( $sql);
                        .
                        .

If you call disconnect() in the same function anyway, you won't need the handle outside the function and can remove the $this-> reference anywhere.
