Hi.

I have just finished reading example 2.4.3 and 2.5.3 and writing it out to show it works. I have literally copied the PHP word for word and I get this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $end in c:\apache\htdocs\sp\ch2\example 2.4.3_5.3.php on line 63.

All other PHP scripts I have written work perfectly.
I am running Apache server 1.3.29 with PHP 4.3.4 under Windows 98 SE. I don't see why there should be a problem...

What's wrong?

Many thanks,
Jon

Note that the default behaviour of PHP5 will be to pass by reference when passing objects. So you would use the _clone method to create copies (more info: PHP Anth, vol.I, p48).

Also I would like to add that for people having a hard time to make the 'mental leap' from procedural to oo, there is a 'training' thread going on in which members give each other little assignements. So join this thread if you need to practice.

this article is excellent to start OOP

As I have bought the books, I wonder if every chapter is going to be released for free? that would be a bit strange though.
I don't mind because I love having the books on paper to read in the train or bus, or at work.

Excellent article. I found the section on aggregation especially helpful, it's the first article I've found that really explains about how classes can interact with each other.

what an article ! this is one of those rare articles on object oriented programming with php where you get to learn the core fundamentals of object aggregation and composition presented with such clarity !

Thank you. It's very helpful to me. I'm looking at the eBay api sample developer's code. They pass around objects by reference. And now I understand what they are doing. I bet they read this article before they wrote the code.

A brilliant article based on the core fundamentals, which it seems everyone else who writes a PHP OOP article neglects. It helped to clarify things I have muddled together and it turns out after lots of thinking and doing I was right!

Thanks, brilliant.

A great article, using a very helpful technique of showing real world, easy to understand, PHP examples of the core OO concepts discussed. Thank you!

(side note: would be nice to include the actual sample .php files, of the examples, to see it all working together in effect)
