PHP: Call a method on a returned class
-
21-09-2019 - |
Question
I have a method which returns a class and want to call a method on it. Instead of
$theClass = $this->getClass();
$theClass->foo();
I would like to write
$this->getClass()->foo();
Is there a syntax for this as of PHP4?
This works:
$this->{$this->getClassName()}->foo();
But I would like to manipulate the class beforehand (I do this now in getClass()).
Solution
Nope, it won't work in PHP4, this feature has been bettered in PHP5. I wonder why are you still using PHP4 :)
