Catchable fatal error: Object of class structure could not be converted to string

[L4DD13]

Hi,

I'm getting the following error when I try to print a variable is defined as self::$structure.

I get the following error:
Catchable fatal error: Object of class structure could not be converted to string...

is there a way around it?

Thanks.

You're trying to print an object? Why?

I've seen the error of my ways now...

I have a class called base, and a class called structure which extends base.
I call structure in the base class and assigned it to self::$structure. I then tried to print it out. I assigned it to self::.... because I thought I might need to pass it to another class which extends base.
