Call parent constructor in PHP
Description
The following code shows how to call parent constructor.
Example
/*from w w w .ja v a 2 s.co m*/
<?php
class Calculator {
protected $_val1, $_val2;
public function __construct( $val1, $val2 ) {
$this->_val1 = $val1;
$this->_val2 = $val2;
}
public function add() {
return $this->_val1 + $this->_val2;
}
public function subtract() {
return $this->_val1 - $this->_val2;
}
public function multiply() {
return $this->_val1 * $this->_val2;
}
public function divide() {
return $this->_val1 / $this->_val2;
}
}
class CalcAdvanced extends Calculator {
private static $_allowedFunctions = array( "pow" => 2, "sqrt" => 1, "exp" => 1 );
public function __construct( $val1, $val2=null ) {
parent::__construct( $val1, $val2 );
}
public function __call( $methodName, $arguments ) {
if ( in_array( $methodName, array_keys( CalcAdvanced::$_allowedFunctions ) ) ) {
$functionArguments = array( $this->_val1 );
if ( CalcAdvanced::$_allowedFunctions[$methodName] == 2 ) array_push( $functionArguments, $this->_val2 );
return call_user_func_array( $methodName, $functionArguments );
} else {
die ( "<p>Method 'CalcAdvanced::$methodName' doesn't exist</p>" );
}
}
}
$ca = new CalcAdvanced( 3, 4 );
echo "<p>3 + 4 = " . $ca->add() . "</p>";
echo "<p>3 - 4 = " . $ca->subtract() . "</p>";
echo "<p>3 * 4 = " . $ca->multiply() . "</p>";
echo "<p>3 / 4 = " . $ca->divide() . "</p>";
echo "<p>pow( 3, 4 ) = " . $ca->pow() . "</p>";
echo "<p>sqrt( 3 ) = " . $ca->sqrt() . "</p>";
echo "<p>exp( 3 ) = " . $ca->exp() . "</p>";
?>
The code above generates the following result.
