Let's refine the conceptual example:
class Hello {
private $_world = 'World';
function __construct(){}
}
$GLOBALS['hello'] = new Hello();
echo 'The variable $hello is '.gettype($hello)."\n".print_r($hello,true);
Can we then postulate that the value of $GLOBALS['hello'] will also be revealed in $hello, even though $hello was never formally declared?
I know that $GLOBALS['hello'] has a universal scope, and $hello (wherever it comes from) needs to be global-ized inside functions.
