I'm fairly new with classes, and I've been looking online for some kind of tutorial on this, but unfortunately I've been unsuccessful at finding a solution. Any help you guys could give me would be much appreciated.
I have 2 files.
1) variables.inc.php:
$myvar = "hello world";
2) myclass.php:
include("variables.inc.php");
class myClass {
function doSomething() {
echo "myvar: $myvar";
}
}
The problem:
$myvar
returns empty. I tried adding this line between function doSomething() {
and echo...:
global $myvar;
But it doesn't seem to work that way either. Any suggestions?
$myvar
is defined in global scope.If it really needs to be accessed then
However the usage of global variables in other scopes is considered bad practice.
See Variable scope chapter in the official PHP manual for a more detailed explanation.
