OOP help

[bugcoder]

i have a class

 

class UploadHandler
{
    public $options;
    
    function __construct($options=null) {
        $this->options = array(
            'upload_dir' => ROOT.DS.'files'.DS.'Jupload/',
            'param_name' => 'files',
            'max_file_size' => null,
            'min_file_size' => 1
        );
        if ($options) {
            $this->options = array_replace_recursive($this->options, $options);
        }
    }

.................other code 

}

 

How can i change the options $this->options['upload_dir'] by calling this class in other class?

Please help with example.

// At construction
$upload_handler = new UploadHandler(array(
    'upload_dir' => '....'
));

// After
$upload_handler->options['upload_dir'] = '...';

[bugcoder]

// At construction

$upload_handler = new UploadHandler(array(

    'upload_dir' => '....'

));

 

 

Sorry couldnt get how to use your code when making object from class? upload_dir is index of options array...so wont it be different?

[Adam]

        if ($options) {
            $this->options = array_replace_recursive($this->options, $options);
        }

 

This condition checks if you passed any $options to the constructor method, and if so replaces them in $this->options. So although you do originally define the 'upload_dir' key, the call to array_replace_recursive() overwrites it.

but im getting error when iniating class like this

 

$upload_handler = new UploadHandler( array("options" => array("upload_dir"=>ROOT.DS.'files'.DS.'newDire') ));

 

the error is

 

Fatal error: Call to undefined function array_replace_recursive() in D:\xampp\htdocs\...

That's not what I posted before. The parameter in the constructor accepts an array of options, not an array with an 'options' key containing an array of options.

 

Structure of yours:

array(
    "options" => array(
        "upload_dir" => ROOT.DS.'files'.DS.'newDire'
    )
)

 

Mine:

array(
    "upload_dir" => ROOT.DS.'files'.DS.'newDire'
)

Also you're getting that error because array_replace_recursive() is only available in PHP v5.3 and later.

[bugcoder]

yes i did use the same code you said but i got the same error message again...

[Adam]

Check my latest reply.. Didn't notice your edit when I posted my first.

Thank you a lot for your great help indeed in both OOP and 5.3 version issue.......................

 

yes it was not working also coz of 5.3 version

 

now from php site i have found function that does same work as array_replace_recursive from this link and my code worked...

link is http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-replace-recursive.php and its user contributed code by "Gregor at der-meyer dot de"

 

Thanks again Adam!!!
