Accessing 'Parent'

[Mschumi]

Hey there, well I've been off coding for a good year at least and I've forgotten / lost something out of my brain. Anyway, in PHP4 I use to be able to do this...

 

function new_class($cName, $file) {

	require $file.'.php';
	$this->$cName = new $cName();
	$this->$cName->cp = $this;

}

 

That would be in my master class, then inside the new class I just made, I would be able to access other classes like so...

 

$this->cp->somClass->aFunction

 

However it seems the below line doesn't do anything

 

$this->$cName->cp = $this;

 

Solution?

I've found the problem.

 

The parent class was being called via __construct__ in the child class, hence before $this->$cName->cp = $this;

 

Thanks anyway.
