Question

Is there a way to set something as global in a class and have all methods of that class to have access to it? Currently if I use global $session; I have to add it into every method that uses it even if all the methods are in the same class.

If I try to add it directly into the class then I get a php error saying it is expecting a function

global $session;

Here is a better example…

class test{
    function test1(){
        $self->test2($var);
    }

    function test2($var){
        return $var
    }
}

in this case I am getting this error below, do I need to use global or what?
Fatal error: Call to a member function test2() on a non-object

Answer 1

You’re getting an error because you’re using self instead of this.

i.e.

$this->test2($var);
