Question

I tried all the tricks available in the net, but dont know why, i am not able to access the variable.. heres the snippet of class containing private variable:

class PANASONIC_PRICESHEET {

    public $models = array();
    public $options = array();       
    public $accessories = array();    

    private $identifier = '';
    private $name = '';
    private $currency1 = '€';
    private $currency2 = '£';

    /**
     * 
     */        
    public function __construct($name1 = 'unnamed', $identifier1 = '') {
        $this->name = $name1;
        $this->identifier = $identifier1;
    }

    public function getIdentifier() {
        return $this->identifier;       
    }

    /**
     * 
     */        
    public function getName($withIdentifier = false) {       
        if ($withIdentifier) {
            return $this->name . " - " . $this->identifier;
        } else {
            return $this->name;
        }
    }
}

And here is how i am accessing it:

$thisName = $pricesheet->getName();
$thisIdentifier = $pricesheet->getIdentifier();

And I am getting this error:

Fatal error: Cannot access private property PANASONIC_PRICESHEET::$name in
C:\AppServ\www\dashboard\sites\all\modules\_custom\pricing_system\pricing_system.inc
on line 316

How to fix this? I cannot make the field PUBLIC, its not a option at all. Any suggestions please.

EDIT – 1

Issue has been solved:
I was suppose to call $_pricesheet->getName();
thanks a lot for suggestions.

This is currently working for me. Take a look here. You must be probably trying to access $pricesheet->name;
