Specify A Php Function

[ienabellamy]

Hello ! i've this portion of code in a file:

 

validation.php

 

$paypal->validateOrder($_POST['custom'], _PS_OS_PAYMENT_, $price, $paypal->displayName, $paypal->getL('transaction').$_POST['txn_id']);

 

That function is declared in another file

 

PaymentModule.php

 

public function validateOrder($id_cart, $id_order_state, $amount_paid, $payment_method = 'Unknown',
$message = null, $extra_vars = array(), $currency_special = null, $dont_touch_amount = false,
$secure_key = false, Shop $shop = null)
{CONTENT FUNCTION}

 

 

I want that $paypal->validateOrder calls another file, for example PaymentModuleMod.php that will contains the same function little modified.

 

in which way can i do this ? and for just curiosity, in which way the system KNOWS that validateOrder() is in PaymentModule.php ? is that $paypal-> that specify this ?

 

Thanks, i'm trying to modify some Prestashop's modules Thanks to ALL!!

 

p.s. i tried to integrate the function directly in the validation.php and i also tried to replace the VALUES, but doesn't work 'cause i wrong something :-/

Can't you just rename the current file to, like, PaymentModuleMod.bak.php, and move the modified version into its place?

 

Most likely (there are other possibilities):

PaymentModule.php includes the definition of some class. $paypal is an instance of that class. So when code calls $paypal->validateOrder() it'll run the code contained in that file.

and in which way can i specify that the function is in the same file when function is called ? like

 

 

validateOrder($_POST['custom'], _PS_OS_PAYMENT_, $price, $paypal->displayName, $paypal->getL('transaction').$_POST['txn_id']);
public function validateOrder($id_cart, $id_order_state, $amount_paid, $payment_method = 'Unknown', $message = null, $extra_vars = array(), $currency_special = null, $dont_touch_amount = false, $secure_key = false, Shop $shop = null) {CONTENT FUNCTION}

 

is it correct ? because i tried and it doesn't work :-/

If I'm understanding you right then no, that's not possible.

 

Try copying the file over like I said.

Hi all ! i solved ! i simply replicated the function, with my modifies, validateOrderMod (declared in the same class $paypal), and so, the new method is: $paypal->validateOrderMod

 

Thanks to all, i'm real new to the Object style programming, i'm coming from old style, Ansi C, and is real difficult understand object oriented php language. Thanks to all again !!!!
