Hi Folks,
I am still pretty new to PHP and I have a question regarding classes and
using _construct. Up until now I have been creating my classes as follows:
class test1 {
var $name;
function test1($pName) {
$this->name = $pName;
}
}
So I when I create a new class I can assign 'name' by doing '$t1 = new
test1("test1");'
As part of another thread I noticed the _construct function which (if I
am correct) does more or less the same thing:
class test2 {
var $name;
function _construct($pName) {
$this->name = $pName;
}
}
It's __construct (double underscore).
PHP5 uses __construct
PHP4 uses the class name.
To support both:
class test {
// php5 calls this
function __construct()
{
echo 'do stuff here';
}
// php4 calls this
function test()
{
$this->__construct();
}
}
:D
