Question

Hey all. I have a question regarding PHP’s If shorthand. Is it possible with PHP’s If shorthand to first include a file and then create a class from that file?

Here’s what I mean:

$object = ($userpresent) ? include file; new firstclass : include different file; new otherclass;

I know the above is incorrect. But is there a way to do this with shorthand?

Thanks

No. This is the ternary operation and it will return and assign a value (in your case back to $object). Doing anything else will not work.
