spl_autoload_register and class

[stalkmadude]

Hello,

 

I'm having hard time with spl_autoload_register function specially when its inside a class. I would appreciate any help

 

This is my index.php

<?php
require('./loadclasses.php');
?>

loadclasses.php

<?php
class loadclasses
{
    function autoLoader($className)
    {
        $fileName = str_replace("_", PATH_SEPARATOR, $className);

        include($fileName);
    }

    spl_autoload_register('autoLoader');
}

But i keep getting this error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'spl_autoload_register' (T_STRING), expecting function (T_FUNCTION) in d:\xampp\htdocs\welcomemanager\loadclasses.php on line 11

 

I am running php 5.4 version on xmapp

 

thanks again!

You can't use a standard function inside a class like that. What I mean is, the call to the function isn't inside a method. If you want it to run automatically, put the call inside a __construct method.

I've given a try by moving to __construct but no luck. Could you please explain with small demo?

 

Edit: I think i got it working Could you explain me a method so that I don't need to keep writing new ClassName everytime?

Hi.

 

to your index put this code to autoload all your your classis and you dont need to use require tag. hope it helps.

<?php
	
  class loadclasses
	{
	   public static function autoLoader($className)
		{
		  $value = '/foldername/foldername1/' .$className. '.php';  require $value; 
		}	
	}
  spl_autoload_register('loadclasses::autoLoader');  $new_value = new ClassName(); $new_value->ClassProperty();

<?php

Thanks Jayson for the help, WIth that would I be able to avoid writing new for each classes?

[Yohanne]

Yes you can by adding.

$new_value = new ClassName();
$new_value = new ClassName1();
$new_value = new ClassName2();

[stalkmadude]

That's not what I meant I meant I want to avoid typing the above code for every new class, something like Zend Framework.

Do yourself a favour and just use composer and it's autoloader like every other programmer writing modern code.
