I’ve searched everywhere, IPB forums, google, everywhere.

I couldn’t find any documentation from IPB/IP.Nexus forums because they don’t have any, it’s encrypted with Zend.

What I was trying to do was retrieve the item, “quantity” from an private Object Array within the function it’s passed to.

This is the php file.

<?php 
class custom_actions_ibeconomy
{
        /**
         * Item Purchased (run before onPurchaseGenerated)
         *
         * @param       array   The member purchasing
         * @param       array   Package data (combined array with row from nexus_packages and nexus_packages_*, depending on the package type)
         * @param       invoice Invoice Model
         * @return      void
         */
        public function onPaid( $member, $package, $invoice )
        {

        }

        /**
         * Purchase record generated (run after onPaid)

         * @param       array   Row from nexus_purchases [since Nexus 1.5]
         * @return      void
         */
        public function onPurchaseGenerated( $member, $package, $invoice, $purchase )
        {
        #What package have we purchased here?
        switch($package['p_id']) {
                        case 3: // 500 HLcoins
                                $value = 500;
                                break;
                        case 4: // 1000 HLcoins
                                $value = 1000;
                                break;

                        default: //Neither? 0 HLcoins.
                                $value = 0;
                                break;;
                }       
        #Find current members HLcoins?           
        $amount = $this->$invoice->quantity * $value;

        #execute points
        ipsRegistry::DB()->update( 'pfields_content', 'eco_points=eco_points+'.$amount, 'member_id=' . $member['member_id'] , true, true );   
        }

        {

        }

}
?>

However it returns nothing.

I’ve printed the array out and it’s listed as private, but its within the function so I should be able to retrieve it, I just don’t know how and I need your help.

In theory:

ob_start();
var_dump($object);
$objectStr = ob_get_clean();

and then use string functions to get the value – similar to:

$qPos = strpos($objectStr,"quantity",0);
$value = substring($objectStr$qPos+SOMEVALUE,$qPOS+SOMEVALUE+LENGTH);

That’s not a perfect answer and you’ll have to tweak it.

As @abhi-beckert said,, however, it’s bad form to do it and likely horrible for performance. Check the documentation and see if there’s a different way.

You can’t extend the class to do it – private aren’t inherited.
