access class member

[lenerd3000]

is there's a way how can i access parent class member in another class?

 

class test

{

    function t();{}

}

 

class test2 extends test

{

    function t2();{}

}

 

class test3 extends test

{

    function t3();

    {

          // can i access t2 from here which is also a member of test class?

    }

}

can i access t2 from here which is also a member of test class?

 

No, test2 is in no way related to test3.

you can only access it if t3 extends from t2.

 

e.g.

class t3 extends t2 {
  function t3(){
    $this->t2();
  }
}

 

What concerns me however is that you appear to be using php4 syntax. Convert to 5 before it's too late, otherwise you'll get left in the dark php ages...

really? i thought my syntax is already 5.. sori if it is...

It is PHP 5 syntax. I think aschk is referring to that you are not explicitly declaring the methods as public. However, if you omit a visibility declaration for a method, then it will always be public implicitly. It's standard practice to always include it though.

I think my sight was funny that day. For some reason or another I thought you were using the old fashioned constructor methods (i.e. for class test, you have a method called test). However, i realise you're not ... my bad.

 

Anywho, the method (t2) that you were interested in using from test3 is a sibling method, and not a parent method. You can't utilise sibling methods as this breaks the fundamental rule of inheritance
