t'isnt good OOP practice to do what you want to do in the first place
Im not too hot on 'good practice' - if I understand the code and its neatly
laid out then Im happy... but there is no point setting this value
here if the value is to be used in an instantiated object (which it must be
as its not declared 'static').
here is the declaration of a member var of 'result set' class, its maybe
bad practice but its worked since php5 was in beta.
/**
* the IBASE_ fetch modifiers;
*
* @var array
* @access private
*/
private $fetchArgs = IBASE_UNIXTIME;
perhaps use the constructor to do it

this wont work, for starters your referencing a non-existant
constant. try: (all code is tested on php5.0.2 cli)
php -r '
class MyClass {
const _SOMETHING_ = "test";
public $abc = MyClass::_SOMETHING_;
// ....
}
$a = new Myclass;
echo $a->abc,"\n";

really you should use the constructor:
php -r '
class MyClass {
const _SOMETHING_ = "test";
private $abc;
function __construct() {
$this->abc = self::_SOMETHING_;
echo $this->abc,"\n";
}
}
$a = new MyClass;
'
although setting a private member var to the value of a constant
belonging to the class of the object _seems_ silly - there may be
a good reason to, alternatively you could consider referencing the
class constant directly e.g.
MyClass::_SOMETHING_
or if the code is inside the class MyClass:
self::_SOMETHING_
alternatively you may wish to set the var as a static member variable
php -r '
class MyClass {
const _SOMETHING_ = "test";
private static $abc = MyClass::_SOMETHING_;
// ....
public static function speak() { echo self::$abc,"\n"; }
}
$a = new Myclass;
$a->speak();
'
similar to this.
var $test=$test2; // also fails
So since I can not use dynamic var assignment within the class declaration,
what does this mean?
what are some of the easy solutions to this ? without making anything global
to the script ?
Thanks
