JarlG 0 Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Hi, I'm trying to create objects on the run, but it I have run int a barrier that is really annoying:The code is: $tableName = $this->_stripNamespaceFromClassName(get_class($this)); $modelName = $tableName; $modelName[strlen($modelName) - 1] = ""; $demoModelName = "Product"; echo "-".$tableName."-\n"; echo "-".$modelName."-\n"; echo "-".$demoModelName."-\n"; $demoFullyQualifiedModelName = "\\StreamComposer\\Models\\$demoModelName"; $fullyQualifiedModelName = "\\StreamComposer\\Models\\$modelName"; echo "So far so good\n"; new $demoFullyQualifiedModelName(); echo "Demo loaded ok\n"; new $fullyQualifiedModelName(); echo "Fully loaded ok\n"; The result is (Echo string is bold):-Products--Product--Product-So far so goodDemo loaded okPHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class '\StreamComposer\Models\Product' not found in /var/www/streamcomposer.com/api/Models/Repositories/Repository.php:61Stack trace:#0 /var/www/streamcomposer.com/api/Command/setupPayment.php(27): StreamComposer\Models\Repositories\Repository->loadAll()#1 /var/www/streamcomposer.com/api/Command/setupPayment.php(32): StreamComposer\Command\SetupPayment->createPlans()#2 {main} thrown in /var/www/streamcomposer.com/api/Models/Repositories/Repository.php on line 61 As you see the $demo.. object loads fine, but the $fully.. does not :-( Thanks in advance Edited December 6, 2016 by JarlG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
requinix 815 Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) $modelName[strlen($modelName) - 1] = "";Don't do that. You cannot use [] to remove characters - only replace. What the code above actually does is replace with a \0. I don't know what character you're trying to remove but I suggest looking at rtrim. [edit] The character is 's'. Which should be obvious given the code and output above. Eh. Edited December 7, 2016 by requinix Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JarlG 0 Posted December 6, 2016 Thanks. Yes I just found out that that was the case :-) I used: $modelName = preg_replace('/.$/', '', $modelName); instead which also worked. So thanks, and now I got an explanation for why and not just a solution. Much appreciated! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
requinix 815 Posted December 7, 2016 There's really no need for slow and expensive regular expressions here. $modelName = substr($modelName, 0, -1); Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
