You can call methods from a classes's parents like so
class foo {
protected method bar() {
echo "in foo!";
}
}
class foobar extends foo {
public function bar() {
parent::bar();
}
}
$fb = new foobar();
$fb->bar(); will output "in foo!";
wrong way round.. he's asking for:
// note no extends
class foobar {
public function bar() {
$this->foo = new Foo();
$this->foo->bar();
}
public function poo() {
echo "call me if you can";
}
}
// and the impossible
class foo {
public method bar() {
foobar->poo(); // call the containing class
}
}
in a dom or as3 or suchlike this would be
this.parent.poo();
but we have not this->parent
note: note parent::poo() which is effectively super.poo() <lol>
so he can only inject the container/parent
<?php
class foobar {
private $foo;
public function bar() {
$this->foo = new Foo( $this );
$this->foo->bar();
}
public function poo() {
echo "call me if you can";
}
}
// and the Possible
class foo {
private $parent;
public function __construct( $parent ) {
$this->parent = $parent;
}
public method bar() {
$this->parent->poo(); // call the containing class method poo
}
}
