I am a wordpress plugin developer. I saw the source of many pluginsand many plugin use “classes” in them and some without classes.
Many huge coded plugins like “wp-postratings” does not use Classes and some small plugins use Classes.
edit:
Since classes have private, public and protected access specifiers, i feel a taste of security
Does it increase security?
Other than PHP does other languages require classes ?
Is it compulsory to use Classes ?
I need some suggestions.
No, it’s not compulsory, nor does it increase security per-se. it’s just a different style of programming.
Most programmers would agree that object-oriented programming (classes) has many advantages over modular programming (functions). But that’s more of a religious debate that I’d rather not get into 🙂
