extended classes not being found?

[fivestringsurf]

For some reason php5 is not finding my parent classes and is throwing the following error...

Fatal error: Class 'One' not found...

I am using xampp locally and extending my custom classes was working fine a few weeks ago.

Is it the include_path in php.ini perhaps?  I don't recall changing it, and just for the record it is set at:

include_path = ".;C:\xampp\php\PEAR"

Even in a simple class test with this is no longer working:

One.php

<?php
class One {
public function __construct(){
	echo 'test class one';
}
}
?>

Two.php

<?php
class two extends One {
}
$two = new two();
?>

 

I restarted apache....still no luck?

totally stumped here and would appreciate some insight.

Thanks

Are you actually including the class definitions where they are needed?

in class two.php

 

r u doing

 

require_once('One.php');

 

if not then try that first , if that doesnt work do

 

<?php 
phpinfo();
?>

 

run the above and check the value of "include_path" .

You need to include the class declaration. Even if you have the include_path configuration option set to include the directory where your class definitions can be found it won't work unless it's being included. The include_path configuration setting is often mentioned in situations like this where you're using an autoloader to load classes. Ex:

 

function __autoload($classname)
{
     require_once "$classname.php";
}

uhggg.  (as i smack my head!) I wasn't including the file itself...I've been doing too much AS3 in which classes are automatically found....I forgot i must include them in php  Don't you just love mixing up languages...I'm sure it will get worse as i get older:)

Thanks guys for the help and AlexWD- Ive used the special __autoload function before it rocks!( but of course forgot about that one too)  ok...back to work.

 

Thanks again to all who contribute!
