Greetings,
The sqlite PDO extension appears to be loaded properly. However, it appears that the extension supports sqlite2, but not sqlite3. Currently, I see the use of sqlite3 in your scripts. You will need to use sqlite2 instead in order for them to work properly. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Please feel free to ask if you need anything else at all.

But I got a solution ~~
1.

cp -rf /opt/php53/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/* ext/

2.conpile the pdo_sqlite.so by your self convert the ext/pdo_sqlite.so

3. change extension_dir in php.ini to the .so file you made.

extension_dir = "/home/xxx/ext"

yes all done~~
Something come from here (http://forums.hostgator.com/php-5-3-support-t100928.html)
Hello,

We currently offer PHP 5.3 support on our shared servers as an addition with PHP 5.2. In order to utilize PHP 5.3 on your domain, place the following code inside the document roots .htaccess file:

Action application/x-hg-php53 /cgi-sys/php53
AddType application/x-httpd-php53 .php

Thanks Richard for the below information:

Here is a generic fix for the TZ issue

PHP Code:

// Force PHP 5.3.0+ to take time zone information from OS
if (version_compare(phpversion(), '5.3.0', '>='))
{
    @date_default_timezone_set(date_default_timezone_get());
}

Please do let us know if you see any problems

Need to use sed to replace CHARSET~

xgettext --language=php --from-code=utf-8 --output="/defraction-light-red/defraction-light-red.po" -D /defraction-light-red/*.php
sed --in-place /defraction-light-red/defraction-light-red.po --expression=s/charset=CHARSET/charset=UTF-8/

Advanced Windows Batch File Scripting

Shared by 小董

這樣的一篇關於windows batch file技巧的文章 近年少見 推!!

First off, this is a single windows .bat file that I have written to do advanced batch scripting the easy way, meaning it’s mostly a series of functions you can call from the script or within other functions for extremely modular code. Before you get all bent out of shape by my choice of words (“easy, modular”), when I say this is advanced I mean for Windows .bat files, one of the worlds worst scripting languages, but it works on all windows versions so it’s ideal for things like autorun, autoplay, custom startups, usb drives, etc.. If you are looking for information on how to use and program windows .bat files to do anything cool, this is the right place! I tried my best to mimic linux shell-scripting, so it’s likely different than other batch files you have seen.

Batch File IDE and Script Source

My favorite tool (and I’ve tried sooo many) for editing most Windows files and especially .bat files is the free and open-source Notepad++. Set that up and you will have a color-syntax-highlighted editor for Batch Scripting that works very very well.

The next thing to do is download the source code, which includes comments and formatting I had to remove for this online article. Then rename from .txt to .bat and open in your IDE/text-editor of choice.

Quick Batch File Example

This is a simple batch file named ping-check.bat that I use when rebooting remote servers. The reboot is issued from an SSH session and causes the server to go down and then come back up. When the server goes down the network goes down too so I fire this script up to continually ping the remote server until it responds, at which point I can ssh back in.

One of the first hacks for batch files is line 1, the PUSHD command cd’s the scripts working environment to the directory of the script itself.

@ECHO OFF && PUSHD "%~dp0" && SETLOCAL
 
CALL  INGCHECK "%~1"
 
nircmd.exe speak text "PING RECEIVED.  HOST BACK ONLINE" 7 60
ENDLOCAL && POPD && GOTO :EOF
   INGCHECK
ECHO CHECKING %~1
ping.exe -n 1 %~1 -w 5000 | FIND /C "Reply from %~1" | FIND "1" >nul 2>&1
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 CALL  INGCHECK "%~1" ELSE EXIT /B

Super-hero like even

Just added this as an after thought, moving the main example further down this page. This is an easier file to understand the scope of. It effectively creates SSH-encrypted SOCK5 tunnels that stay connected and auto-reconnect if the link goes down. I wanted to try and write a pure batch method to do that. I wrote this to run automatically from a USB key so that I could keep my tools with me portably. The thing of this script that is the most revolutionary is the method it uses to create auto-reconnecting SSH-encrypted SOCKS5 tunnels using the windows SYSTEM account to do it all in the background with plink.exe. The hack to run it as a system account is by using the built-in AT command to run interactively, which lets you interactively do whatever you want as the builtin NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM account. The other part I am proud of with this is how lean I got the code, specifically how lean the function is that creates the at job to run every 5 minutes, while still doing connection-testing, all by parsing the cmd.exe processors builtin in DATE and TIME variables. Do a google search for “windows batch file date and time” and you will appreciate just how lean this sucker is.

Almost forgot, check out the ways to keep a plink.exe (putty.exe for cmd.exe) SOCKS5 tunnel hidden and safe and continuously connected to a remote server in minimal lines od code. This was a fun one to work on! Enjoy (and remember this is just the warm-up example to glance at).

Advanced Batch File

This is the main batch file example which you can download here. Other than some minor changes this is the actual script I use at work when I logon to my PC. The first thing it does is mount an encrypted TrueCrypt Drive where all of my files and settings are located. It also starts a putty session named “1″ that I configured to start a few encrypted tunnels and socks proxies so that my email Thunderbird and Website IDE Dreamweaver and other network apps can communicate 100% encrypted and my real location becomes hidden (thanks socks!).

I might come back later and add comments if I get any kind of response for this article, and because it’s such a unique and low-traffic topic, I will try to answer any questions added with the comment form.

Starting the Script

The first line is of my own design and is perhaps the coolest hack in the script. I use this 1 line to start pretty much all of my .bat files.

@ECHO OFF&& SETLOCAL&& PUSHD "%~dp0"&& SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION&& SETLOCAL ENABLEEXTENSIONS&& SET V=5&& IF NOT "!V!"=="5" (ECHO DelayedExpansion Failed&& GOTO :EOF)

SCRIPT VARIABLES

These are all local to this script thanks to the SETLOCAL above, so they won’t exist outside the scripts execution environment.

REM ** Various vars for output used by functions
SET P1=^^^>^^^>^^^>
SET P2=++
SET P3=::
SET L1=+==============================================================================================================+
SET L2=+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
REM ** administrator username, unless changed for more security, its Administrator
SET ADMINUSER=admin
 
REM ** runuser is the username you use when running this script
SET RUNUSER=bill
 
REM ** Custom COMSPEC for running cmd.exe
SET _SCOM=%COMSPEC% /E:ON /F:ON /D /Q /T:0C /C
 
REM ** Custom START command
SET _START=START /WAIT /MIN /B %_SCOM%

MAIN PROGRAM EXECUTION

This is where the main code starts, note how small it is thanks to the use of functions (labels/call/goto). Read the comments in this area (start with :: or REM ) to see the extent of this script. The gold is in the functions.

:: Only allow certain users to run this script or die (prevents global STARTup or service running it)
CALL :CHECKUSERVALID %RUNUSER% %ADMINUSER%
 
:: Mount the truecrypt container
CALL :CRYPTMOUNT "L" "%SYSTEMDRIVE%CRYPTLEONARDO" "%SYSTEMDRIVE%CRYPTLEONARDO_KEY"
 
:: Start Mozilla Firefox
CALL :RUNONE "C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxfirefox.exe"
 
:: Start Thunderbird Portable
CALL :RUNONE "L:PPPputty.exe" "/MIN" -load 1
 
:: Start Thunderbird Portable
CALL :RUNONE "L:PTBThunderbirdPortable.exe" "/MIN"
 
:: Start Adobe Dreamweaver CS4
CALL :RUNONE "C:Program FilesAdobeAdobe Dreamweaver CS4Dreamweaver.exe" "/MIN"
 
:: Start LightScreen Portable
CALL :RUNONE "L:PLPLightscreenPortable.exe" /B /B
 
:: Start Google Chrome Portable ( GREAT to use for pandora/last.fm as its so low mem )
CALL :RUNONE "L:PGCGC.exe" "/NORMAL"
 
:: Start Adobe Photoshop CS4
CALL :RUNONE "%ProgramFiles%AdobeAdobe Photoshop CS4Photoshop.exe" "/MAX"

Exit Script

This is the last line executed in the Main, it forces the script to exit cleanly at this point, otherwise the functions below would all get executed. This is what allows the use of all the functions below. I end all my scripts MAIN with this.

REM ** EXIT Script
CALL :MDYE "EOF" && POPD && ENDLOCAL && GOTO :EOF

SCRIPT FUNCTIONS

Now then, onto the MEAT of the script, all the functions. These functions are designed for global use in other batch files, so that the only modification when you make a new batch is the above variables and main execution.. If you know much about batch files you will realize that creating these functions was a very painful process in some cases.. I freakin hate windows! Anyway, enjoy!

EOF: Thoughts

So what did you think? I have around 20 batch scripts that utilize these and other functions to do all sorts of cool things. One takes a screenshot of my desktop every 10 minutes and saves it for a real-cool archive of my activity. Another lets me edit a boot.ini file with 1 command.. And another runs when I insert a USB drive to automatically mount a truecrypt volume and create SSH tunnels in the background by using Plink, AT, and the runas.exe command.

If you want to program, please use linux… If you need to write a Windows batch file, I hope this helps.

FreeBSD 上使用 wkhtmltopdf 做網頁擷取

Shared by 小董

天阿 育典哥們 你看了也可以瞑目了 阿門~

以往要用程式控制將網頁輸出pdf或擷取網頁,都是件浩大工程.
這次介紹如何在FreeBSD 命令列模式下即可輕易辦到,並且不需龐大的X Windows 圖形系統適合在server上跑.

以下是軟體原文介紹.

wkhtmltopdf

Convert html to pdf using webkit (qtwebkit)

Description

Simple shell utility to convert html to pdf using the webkit rendering engine, and qt.

Introduction

Searching the web, I have found several command line tools that allow you to convert a HTML-document to a PDF-document, however they all seem to use their own, and rather incomplete rendering engine, resulting in poor quality. Recently QT 4.4 was released with a WebKit widget (WebKit is the engine of Apples Safari, which is a fork of the KDE KHtml), and making a good tool became very easy.
此軟體使用WebKit開發完成,除了flash以外其他接可正常顯示！！（包含js）
在安裝前請先確定你的FreeBSD已安裝 linux-base 套件並正常使用,並且將port tree更新.

# ./wkhtmltopdf-i386
You need to specify atleast one input file, and exactly one output file
Use - for stdin or stdout

Name:
  wkhtmltopdf 0.10.0 beta4

Synopsis:
  wkhtmltopdf GLOBAL OPTION... OBJECT... 

Document objects:
  wkhtmltopdf is able to put several objecs into the output file, an object is
  either a single webpage, a cover webpage or a table of content.  The objects
  are put into the output document in the order they are specified on the
  commandline, options can be specified on a per object basis or in the global
  options area. Options from the Global Options section can only be placed in
  the global options area

  A page objects puts the content of a singe webpage into the output document.

  (page)? < input url/file name  > PAGE OPTION...
  Options for the page object can be placed in the global options and the page
  options areas. The applicable options can be found in the Page Options and
  Headers And Footer Options sections.

  A cover objects puts the content of a singe webpage into the output document,
  the page does not appear in the table of content, and does not have headers
  and footers.

  cover < input url/file name > PAGE OPTION...
  All options that can be specified for a page object can also be specified for
  a cover.

  A table of content object inserts a table of content into the output document.

  toc TOC OPTION...
  All options that can be specified for a page object can also be specified for
  a toc, further more the options from the TOC Options section can also be
  applied. The table of content is generated via xslt which means that it can be
  styled to look however you want it to look. To get an idear of how to do this
  you can dump the default xslt document by supplying the
  --dump-default-toc-xsl, and the outline it works on by supplying
  --dump-outline, see the Outline Options section.

9 Useful PHP Functions and Features You Need to Know

Shared by 小董

的確很優~

1. Functions with Arbitrary Number of Arguments

You may already know that PHP allows you to define functions with optional arguments. But there is also a method for allowing completely arbitrary number of function arguments.

First, here is an example with just optional arguments:

// function with 2 optional arguments
function foo($arg1 = '', $arg2 = '') 

	echo "arg1: $arg1n";
	echo "arg2: $arg2n";

foo('hello','world');
/* prints:
arg1: hello
arg2: world
*/

foo();
/* prints:
arg1:
arg2:
*/

Now, let’s see how we can build a function that accepts any number of arguments. This time we are going to utilize func_get_args():

// yes, the argument list can be empty
function foo() 

	// returns an array of all passed arguments
	$args = func_get_args();

	foreach ($args as $k => $v)
		echo "arg".($k+1).": $vn";

}

foo();
/* prints nothing */

foo('hello');
/* prints
arg1: hello
*/

foo('hello', 'world', 'again');
/* prints
arg1: hello
arg2: world
arg3: again
*/

2. Using Glob() to Find Files

Many PHP functions have long and descriptive names. However it may be hard to tell what a function named glob() does unless you are already familiar with that term from elsewhere.

Think of it like a more capable version of the scandir() function. It can let you search for files by using patterns.

// get all php files
$files = glob('*.php');

print_r($files);
/* output looks like:
Array
(
    0 => phptest.php
    1 => pi.php
    2 => post_output.php
    3 => test.php
)
*/

You can fetch multiple file types like this:

// get all php files AND txt files
$files = glob('*.php,txt', GLOB_BRACE);

print_r($files);
/* output looks like:
Array
(
    0 => phptest.php
    1 => pi.php
    2 => post_output.php
    3 => test.php
    4 => log.txt
    5 => test.txt
)
*/

Note that the files can actually be returned with a path, depending on your query:

$files = glob('../images/a*.jpg');

print_r($files);
/* output looks like:
Array
(
    0 => ../images/apple.jpg
    1 => ../images/art.jpg
)
*/

If you want to get the full path to each file, you can just call the realpath() function on the returned values:

$files = glob('../images/a*.jpg');

// applies the function to each array element
$files = array_map('realpath',$files);

print_r($files);
/* output looks like:
Array
(
    0 => C:wampwwwimagesapple.jpg
    1 => C:wampwwwimagesart.jpg
)
*/

3. Memory Usage Information

By observing the memory usage of your scripts, you may be able optimize your code better.

PHP has a garbage collector and a pretty complex memory manager. The amount of memory being used by your script. can go up and down during the execution of a script. To get the current memory usage, we can use the memory_get_usage() function, and to get the highest amount of memory used at any point, we can use the memory_get_peak_usage() function.

echo "Initial: ".memory_get_usage()." bytes n";
/* prints
Initial: 361400 bytes
*/

// let's use up some memory
for ($i = 0; $i < 100000; $i++)
	$array []= md5($i);

// let's remove half of the array
for ($i = 0; $i < 100000; $i++)
	unset($array$i);

echo "Final: ".memory_get_usage()." bytes n";
/* prints
Final: 885912 bytes
*/

echo "Peak: ".memory_get_peak_usage()." bytes n";
/* prints
Peak: 13687072 bytes
*/

4. CPU Usage Information

For this, we are going to utilize the getrusage() function. Keep in mind that this is not available on Windows platforms.

print_r(getrusage());
/* prints
Array
(
    ru_oublock => 0
    ru_inblock => 0
    ru_msgsnd => 2
    ru_msgrcv => 3
    ru_maxrss => 12692
    ru_ixrss => 764
    ru_idrss => 3864
    ru_minflt => 94
    ru_majflt => 0
    ru_nsignals => 1
    ru_nvcsw => 67
    ru_nivcsw => 4
    ru_nswap => 0
    ru_utime.tv_usec => 0
    ru_utime.tv_sec => 0
    ru_stime.tv_usec => 6269
    ru_stime.tv_sec => 0
)

*/

That may look a bit cryptic unless you already have a system administration background. Here is the explanation of each value (you don’t need to memorize these):

• ru_oublock: block output operations
• ru_inblock: block input operations
• ru_msgsnd: messages sent
• ru_msgrcv: messages received
• ru_maxrss: maximum resident set size
• ru_ixrss: integral shared memory size
• ru_idrss: integral unshared data size
• ru_minflt: page reclaims
• ru_majflt: page faults
• ru_nsignals: signals received
• ru_nvcsw: voluntary context switches
• ru_nivcsw: involuntary context switches
• ru_nswap: swaps
• ru_utime.tv_usec: user time used (microseconds)
• ru_utime.tv_sec: user time used (seconds)
• ru_stime.tv_usec: system time used (microseconds)
• ru_stime.tv_sec: system time used (seconds)

To see how much CPU power the script has consumed, we need to look at the ‘user time’ and ‘system time’ values. The seconds and microseconds portions are provided separately by default. You can divide the microseconds value by 1 million, and add it to the seconds value, to get the total seconds as a decimal number.

Let’s see an example:

// sleep for 3 seconds (non-busy)
sleep(3);

$data = getrusage();
echo "User time: ".
	($data'ru_utime.tv_sec' +
	$data'ru_utime.tv_usec' / 1000000);
echo "System time: ".
	($data'ru_stime.tv_sec' +
	$data'ru_stime.tv_usec' / 1000000);

/* prints
User time: 0.011552
System time: 0
*/

Even though the script took about 3 seconds to run, the CPU usage was very very low. Because during the sleep operation, the script actually does not consume CPU resources. There are many other tasks that may take real time, but may not use CPU time, like waiting for disk operations. So as you see, the CPU usage and the actual length of the runtime are not always the same.

Here is another example:

// loop 10 million times (busy)
for($i=0;$i<10000000;$i++) 

$data = getrusage();
echo "User time: ".
	($data'ru_utime.tv_sec' +
	$data'ru_utime.tv_usec' / 1000000);
echo "System time: ".
	($data'ru_stime.tv_sec' +
	$data'ru_stime.tv_usec' / 1000000);

/* prints
User time: 1.424592
System time: 0.004204
*/

That took about 1.4 seconds of CPU time, almost all of which was user time, since there were no system calls.

System Time is the amount of time the CPU spends performing system calls for the kernel on the program’s behalf. Here is an example of that:

$start = microtime(true);
// keep calling microtime for about 3 seconds
while(microtime(true) - $start < 3) 

$data = getrusage();
echo "User time: ".
	($data'ru_utime.tv_sec' +
	$data'ru_utime.tv_usec' / 1000000);
echo "System time: ".
	($data'ru_stime.tv_sec' +
	$data'ru_stime.tv_usec' / 1000000);

/* prints
User time: 1.088171
System time: 1.675315
*/

Now we have quite a bit of system time usage. This is because the script calls the microtime() function many times, which performs a request through the operating system to fetch the time.

Also you may notice the numbers do not quite add up to 3 seconds. This is because there were probably other processes on the server as well, and the script was not using 100% CPU for the whole duration of the 3 seconds.

5. Magic Constants

PHP provides useful magic constants for fetching the current line number (__LINE__), file path (__FILE__), directory path (__DIR__), function name (__FUNCTION__), class name (__CLASS__), method name (__METHOD__) and namespace (__NAMESPACE__).

We are not going to cover each one of these in this article, but I will show you a few use cases.

When including other scripts, it is a good idea to utilize the __FILE__ constant (or also __DIR__ since PHP 5.3):

// this is relative to the loaded script's path
// it may cause problems when running scripts from different directories
require_once('config/database.php');

// this is always relative to this file's path
// no matter where it was included from
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/config/database.php');

Using __LINE__ makes debugging easier. You can track down the line numbers:

// some code
// ...
my_debug("some debug message", __LINE__);
/* prints
Line 4: some debug message
*/

// some more code
// ...
my_debug("another debug message", __LINE__);
/* prints
Line 11: another debug message
*/

function my_debug($msg, $line)
	echo "Line $line: $msgn";

6. Generating Unique ID’s

There may be situations where you need to generate a unique string. I have seen many people use the md5() function for this, even though it’s not exactly meant for this purpose:

// generate unique string
echo md5(time() . mt_rand(1,1000000));

There is actually a PHP function named uniqid() that is meant to be used for this.

// generate unique string
echo uniqid();
/* prints
4bd67c947233e
*/

// generate another unique string
echo uniqid();
/* prints
4bd67c9472340
*/

You may notice that even though the strings are unique, they seem similar for the first several characters. This is because the generated string is related to the server time. This actually has a nice side effect, as every new generated id comes later in alphabetical order, so they can be sorted.

To reduce the chances of getting a duplicate, you can pass a prefix, or the second parameter to increase entropy:

// with prefix
echo uniqid('foo_');
/* prints
foo_4bd67d6cd8b8f
*/

// with more entropy
echo uniqid('',true);
/* prints
4bd67d6cd8b926.12135106
*/

// both
echo uniqid('bar_',true);
/* prints
bar_4bd67da367b650.43684647
*/

This function will generate shorter strings than md5(), which will also save you some space.

7. Serialization

Did you ever need to store a complex variable in a database or a text file? You do not have to come up with a fancy solution to convert your arrays or objects into formatted strings, as PHP already has functions for this purpose.

There are two popular methods of serializing variables. Here is an example that uses the serialize() and unserialize():

// a complex array
$myvar = array(
	'hello',
	42,
	array(1,'two'),
	'apple'
);

// convert to a string
$string = serialize($myvar);

echo $string;
/* prints
a:4:i:0;s:5:"hello";i:1;i:42;i:2;a:2:i:0;i:1;i:1;s:3:"two";i:3;s:5:"apple";}
*/

// you can reproduce the original variable
$newvar = unserialize($string);

print_r($newvar);
/* prints
Array
(
    0 => hello
    1 => 42
    2 => Array
        (
            0 => 1
            1 => two
        )

    3 => apple
)
*/

This was the native PHP serialization method. However, since JSON has become so popular in recent years, they decided to add support for it in PHP 5.2. Now you can use the json_encode() and json_decode() functions as well:

// a complex array
$myvar = array(
	'hello',
	42,
	array(1,'two'),
	'apple'
);

// convert to a string
$string = json_encode($myvar);

echo $string;
/* prints
"hello",42,,"apple"]
*/

// you can reproduce the original variable
$newvar = json_decode($string);

print_r($newvar);
/* prints
Array
(
    0 => hello
    1 => 42
    2 => Array
        (
            0 => 1
            1 => two
        )

    3 => apple
)
*/

It is more compact, and best of all, compatible with javascript and many other languages. However, for complex objects, some information may be lost.

8. Compressing Strings

When talking about compression, we usually think about files, such as ZIP archives. It is possible to compress long strings in PHP, without involving any archive files.

In the following example we are going to utilize the gzcompress() and gzuncompress() functions:

$string =
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur
adipiscing elit. Nunc ut elit id mi ultricies
adipiscing. Nulla facilisi. Praesent pulvinar,
sapien vel feugiat vestibulum, nulla dui pretium orci,
non ultricies elit lacus quis ante. Lorem ipsum dolor
sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aliquam
pretium ullamcorper urna quis iaculis. Etiam ac massa
sed turpis tempor luctus. Curabitur sed nibh eu elit
mollis congue. Praesent ipsum diam, consectetur vitae
ornare a, aliquam a nunc. In id magna pellentesque
tellus posuere adipiscing. Sed non mi metus, at lacinia
augue. Sed magna nisi, ornare in mollis in, mollis
sed nunc. Etiam at justo in leo congue mollis.
Nullam in neque eget metus hendrerit scelerisque
eu non enim. Ut malesuada lacus eu nulla bibendum
id euismod urna sodales. ";

$compressed = gzcompress($string);

echo "Original size: ". strlen($string)."n";
/* prints
Original size: 800
*/

echo "Compressed size: ". strlen($compressed)."n";
/* prints
Compressed size: 418
*/

// getting it back
$original = gzuncompress($compressed);

We were able to achive almost 50% size reduction. Also the functions gzencode() and gzdecode() achive similar results, by using a different compression algorithm.

9. Register Shutdown Function

There is a function called register_shutdown_function(), which will let you execute some code right before the script finishes running.

Imagine that you want to capture some benchmark statistics at the end of your script execution, such as how long it took to run:

// capture the start time
$start_time = microtime(true);

// do some stuff
// ...

// display how long the script took
echo "execution took: ".
		(microtime(true) - $start_time).
		" seconds.";

At first this may seem trivial. You just add the code to the very bottom of the script and it runs before it finishes. However, if you ever call the exit() function, that code will never run. Also, if there is a fatal error, or if the script is terminated by the user (by pressing the Stop button in the browser), again it may not run.

When you use register_shutdown_function(), your code will execute no matter why the script has stopped running:

$start_time = microtime(true);

register_shutdown_function('my_shutdown');

// do some stuff
// ...

function my_shutdown()
	global $start_time;

	echo "execution took: ".
			(microtime(true) - $start_time).
			" seconds.";

Object-Oriented PHP for Beginners

Shared by 小董

會利用物件導向的確可以省很多事 但誤用會多更多事

For many PHP programmers, object-oriented programming is a frightening concept, full of complicated syntax and other roadblocks. As detailed in my book, Pro PHP and jQuery, you’ll learn the concepts behind object-oriented programming (OOP), a style of coding in which related actions are grouped into classes to aid in creating more-compact, effective code.

Understanding Object-Oriented Programming

Object-oriented programming is a style of coding that allows developers to group similar tasks into classes. This helps keep code following the tenet “don’t repeat yourself” (DRY) and easy-to-maintain.

“Object-oriented programming is a style of coding that allows developers to group similar tasks into classes.”

One of the major benefits of DRY programming is that, if a piece of information changes in your program, usually only one change is required to update the code. One of the biggest nightmares for developers is maintaining code where data is declared over and over again, meaning any changes to the program become an infinitely more frustrating game of Where’s Waldo? as they hunt for duplicated data and functionality.

OOP is intimidating to a lot of developers because it introduces new syntax and, at a glance, appears to be far more complex than simple procedural, or inline, code. However, upon closer inspection, OOP is actually a very straightforward and ultimately simpler approach to programming.

Understanding Objects and Classes

Before you can get too deep into the finer points of OOP, a basic understanding of the differences between objects and classes is necessary. This section will go over the building blocks of classes, their different capabilities, and some of their uses.

Recognizing the Differences Between Objects and Classes

Photos by Instant Jefferson and John Wardell

“Developers start talking about objects and classes, and they appear to be interchangeable terms. This is not the case, however.”

Right off the bat, there’s confusion in OOP: seasoned developers start talking about objects and classes, and they appear to be interchangeable terms. This is not the case, however, though the difference can be tough to wrap your head around at first.

A class, for example, is like a blueprint for a house. It defines the shape of the house on paper, with relationships between the different parts of the house clearly defined and planned out, even though the house doesn’t exist.

An object, then, is like the actual house built according to that blueprint. The data stored in the object is like the wood, wires, and concrete that compose the house: without being assembled according to the blueprint, it’s just a pile of stuff. However, when it all comes together, it becomes an organized, useful house.

Classes form the structure of data and actions and use that information to build objects. More than one object can be built from the same class at the same time, each one independent of the others. Continuing with our construction analogy, it’s similar to the way an entire subdivision can be built from the same blueprint: 150 different houses that all look the same but have different
families and decorations inside.

Structuring Classes

The syntax to create a class is pretty straightforward: declare a class using the class keyword, followed by the name of the class and a set of curly braces ({}):

< ?php

class MyClass

    // Class properties and methods go here

?>

After creating the class, a new class can be instantiated and stored in a variable using the new keyword:

$obj = new MyClass;

To see the contents of the class, use var_dump():

var_dump($obj);

Try out this process by putting all the preceding code in a new file called test.php in your local testing folder:

< ?php

class MyClass

	// Class properties and methods go here

$obj = new MyClass;

var_dump($obj);

?>

Load the page in your browser at http://localhost/test.php and the following should display:

object(MyClass)#1 (0)

In its simplest form, you’ve just completed your first OOP script.

Defining Class Properties

To add data to a class, properties, or class-specific variables, are used. These work exactly like regular variables, except they’re bound to the object and therefore can only be accessed using the object.

To add a property to MyClass, add the following code to your script:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

$obj = new MyClass;

var_dump($obj);

?>

The keyword public determines the visibility of the property, which you’ll learn about a little later in this chapter. Next, the property is named using standard variable syntax, and a value is assigned (though class properties do not need an initial value).

To read this property and output it to the browser, reference the object from which to read and the property to be read:

echo $obj->prop1;

Because multiple instances of a class can exist, if the individual object is not referenced, the script would be unable to determine which object to read from. The use of the arrow (->) is an OOP construct that accesses the contained properties and methods of a given object.

Modify the script in test.php to read out the property rather than dumping the whole class by modifying the code as shown:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

$obj = new MyClass;

echo $obj->prop1; // Output the property

?>

Reloading your browser now outputs the following:

I'm a class property!

Defining Class Methods

Methods are class-specific functions. Individual actions that an object will be able to perform are defined within the class as methods.

For instance, to create methods that would set and get the value of the class property $prop1, add the following to your code:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

$obj = new MyClass;

echo $obj->prop1;

?>

Note — OOP allows objects to reference themselves using $this. When working within a method, use $this in the same way you would use the object name outside the class.

To use these methods, call them just like regular functions, but first, reference the object they belong to. Read the property from MyClass, change its value, and read it out again by making the modifications below:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

$obj = new MyClass;

echo $obj->getProperty(); // Get the property value

$obj->setProperty("I'm a new property value!"); // Set a new one

echo $obj->getProperty(); // Read it out again to show the change

?>

Reload your browser, and you’ll see the following:

I'm a class property!
I'm a new property value!

“The power of OOP becomes apparent when using multiple instances of the
same class.”

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

// Create two objects
$obj = new MyClass;
$obj2 = new MyClass;

// Get the value of $prop1 from both objects
echo $obj->getProperty();
echo $obj2->getProperty();

// Set new values for both objects
$obj->setProperty("I'm a new property value!");
$obj2->setProperty("I belong to the second instance!");

// Output both objects' $prop1 value
echo $obj->getProperty();
echo $obj2->getProperty();

?>

When you load the results in your browser, they read as follows:

I'm a class property!
I'm a class property!
I'm a new property value!
I belong to the second instance!

As you can see, OOP keeps objects as separate entities, which makes for easy separation of different pieces of code into small, related bundles.

Magic Methods in OOP

To make the use of objects easier, PHP also provides a number of magic methods, or special methods that are called when certain common actions occur within objects. This allows developers to perform a number of useful tasks with relative ease.

Using Constructors and Destructors

When an object is instantiated, it’s often desirable to set a few things right off the bat. To handle this, PHP provides the magic method __construct(), which is called automatically whenever a new object is
created.

For the purpose of illustrating the concept of constructors, add a constructor to MyClass that will output a message whenever a new instance of the class is created:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

// Create a new object
$obj = new MyClass;

// Get the value of $prop1
echo $obj->getProperty();

// Output a message at the end of the file
echo "End of file.";

?>

Note — __CLASS__ returns the name of the class in which it is called; this is what is known as a magic constant. There are several available magic constants, which you can read more about in the PHP manual.

Reloading the file in your browser will produce the following result:

The class "MyClass" was initiated!
I'm a class property!
End of file.

To call a function when the object is destroyed, the __destruct() magic method is available. This is useful for class cleanup (closing a database connection, for instance).

Output a message when the object is destroyed by defining the magic method
__destruct() in MyClass:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

// Create a new object
$obj = new MyClass;

// Get the value of $prop1
echo $obj->getProperty();

// Output a message at the end of the file
echo "End of file.";

?>

With a destructor defined, reloading the test file results in the following output:

The class "MyClass" was initiated!
I'm a class property!
End of file.
The class "MyClass" was destroyed.

“When the end of a file is reached, PHP automatically releases all resources.”

To explicitly trigger the destructor, you can destroy the object using the
function unset():

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

// Create a new object
$obj = new MyClass;

// Get the value of $prop1
echo $obj->getProperty();

// Destroy the object
unset($obj);

// Output a message at the end of the file
echo "End of file.";

?>

Now the result changes to the following when loaded in your browser:

The class "MyClass" was initiated!
I'm a class property!
The class "MyClass" was destroyed.
End of file.

Converting to a String

To avoid an error if a script attempts to output MyClass as a string, another magic method is used called __toString().

Without __toString(), attempting to output the object as a string results in a fatal error. Attempt to use echo to output the object without a magic method in place:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

// Create a new object
$obj = new MyClass;

// Output the object as a string
echo $obj;

// Destroy the object
unset($obj);

// Output a message at the end of the file
echo "End of file.";

?>

This results in the following:

The class "MyClass" was initiated!

Catchable fatal error: Object of class MyClass could not be converted to string in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/testing/test.php on line 40

To avoid this error, add a __toString() method:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function __toString()

        echo "Using the toString method: ";
        return $this->getProperty();

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

// Create a new object
$obj = new MyClass;

// Output the object as a string
echo $obj;

// Destroy the object
unset($obj);

// Output a message at the end of the file
echo "End of file.";

?>

In this case, attempting to convert the object to a string results in a call to the getProperty() method. Load the test script in your browser to see the result:

The class "MyClass" was initiated!
Using the toString method: I'm a class property!
The class "MyClass" was destroyed.
End of file.

Tip — In addition to the magic methods discussed in this section, several others are available. For a complete list of magic methods, see the PHP manual page.

Using Class Inheritance

Classes can inherit the methods and properties of another class using the extends keyword. For instance, to create a second class that extends MyClass and adds a method, you would add the following to your test file:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function __toString()

        echo "Using the toString method: ";
        return $this->getProperty();

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

class MyOtherClass extends MyClass

    public function newMethod()

        echo "From a new method in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

}

// Create a new object
$newobj = new MyOtherClass;

// Output the object as a string
echo $newobj->newMethod();

// Use a method from the parent class
echo $newobj->getProperty();

?>

Upon reloading the test file in your browser, the following is output:

The class "MyClass" was initiated!
From a new method in MyOtherClass.
I'm a class property!
The class "MyClass" was destroyed.

Overwriting Inherited Properties and Methods

To change the behavior of an existing property or method in the new class, you can simply overwrite it by declaring it again in the new class:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function __toString()

        echo "Using the toString method: ";
        return $this->getProperty();

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

class MyOtherClass extends MyClass

    public function __construct()

        echo "A new constructor in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

    public function newMethod()

        echo "From a new method in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

}

// Create a new object
$newobj = new MyOtherClass;

// Output the object as a string
echo $newobj->newMethod();

// Use a method from the parent class
echo $newobj->getProperty();

?>

This changes the output in the browser to:

A new constructor in MyOtherClass.
From a new method in MyOtherClass.
I'm a class property!
The class "MyClass" was destroyed.

Preserving Original Method Functionality While Overwriting Methods

To add new functionality to an inherited method while keeping the original method intact, use the parent keyword with the scope resolution operator (::):

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function __toString()

        echo "Using the toString method: ";
        return $this->getProperty();

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    public function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

class MyOtherClass extends MyClass

    public function __construct()

        parent::__construct(); // Call the parent class's constructor
        echo "A new constructor in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

    public function newMethod()

        echo "From a new method in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

}

// Create a new object
$newobj = new MyOtherClass;

// Output the object as a string
echo $newobj->newMethod();

// Use a method from the parent class
echo $newobj->getProperty();

?>

This outputs the result of both the parent constructor and the new class’s constructor:

The class "MyClass" was initiated!
A new constructor in MyOtherClass.
From a new method in MyOtherClass.
I'm a class property!
The class "MyClass" was destroyed.

Assigning the Visibility of Properties and Methods

For added control over objects, methods and properties are assigned visibility. This controls how and from where properties and methods can be accessed. There are three visibility keywords: public, protected, and private. In addition to its visibility, a method or property can be declared as static, which allows them to be accessed without an instantiation of the class.

“For added control over objects, methods and properties are assigned visibility.”

Note — Visibility is a new feature as of PHP 5. For information on OOP compatibility with PHP 4, see the PHP manual page.

Public Properties and Methods

All the methods and properties you’ve used so far have been public. This means that they can be accessed anywhere, both within the class and externally.

Protected Properties and Methods

When a property or method is declared protected, it can only be accessed within the class itself or in descendant classes (classes that extend the class containing the protected method).

Declare the getProperty() method as protected in MyClass and try to access it directly from outside the class:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function __toString()

        echo "Using the toString method: ";
        return $this->getProperty();

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    protected function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

class MyOtherClass extends MyClass

    public function __construct()

        parent::__construct();
		echo "A new constructor in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

    public function newMethod()

        echo "From a new method in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

}

// Create a new object
$newobj = new MyOtherClass;

// Attempt to call a protected method
echo $newobj->getProperty();

?>

Upon attempting to run this script, the following error shows up:

The class "MyClass" was initiated!
A new constructor in MyOtherClass.

Fatal error: Call to protected method MyClass::getProperty() from context '' in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/testing/test.php on line 55

Now, create a new method in MyOtherClass to call the getProperty() method:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function __toString()

        echo "Using the toString method: ";
        return $this->getProperty();

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    protected function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

class MyOtherClass extends MyClass

    public function __construct()

        parent::__construct();
		echo "A new constructor in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

    public function newMethod()

        echo "From a new method in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

    public function callProtected()

        return $this->getProperty();

}

// Create a new object
$newobj = new MyOtherClass;

// Call the protected method from within a public method
echo $newobj->callProtected();

?>

This generates the desired result:

The class "MyClass" was initiated!
A new constructor in MyOtherClass.
I'm a class property!
The class "MyClass" was destroyed.

Private Properties and Methods

A property or method declared private is accessible only from within the class that defines it. This means that even if a new class extends the class that defines a private property, that property or method will not be available at all within the child class.

To demonstrate this, declare getProperty() as private in MyClass, and attempt to call callProtected() from
MyOtherClass:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function __toString()

        echo "Using the toString method: ";
        return $this->getProperty();

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    private function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

}

class MyOtherClass extends MyClass

    public function __construct()

        parent::__construct();
        echo "A new constructor in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

    public function newMethod()

        echo "From a new method in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

    public function callProtected()

        return $this->getProperty();

}

// Create a new object
$newobj = new MyOtherClass;

// Use a method from the parent class
echo $newobj->callProtected();

?>

Reload your browser, and the following error appears:

The class "MyClass" was initiated!
A new constructor in MyOtherClass.

Fatal error: Call to private method MyClass::getProperty() from context 'MyOtherClass' in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/testing/test.php on line 49

Static Properties and Methods

A method or property declared static can be accessed without first instantiating the class; you simply supply the class name, scope resolution operator, and the property or method name.

“One of the major benefits to using static properties is that they keep their stored values for the duration of the script.”

To demonstrate this, add a static property called $count and a static method called plusOne() to MyClass. Then set up a do...while loop to output the incremented value of $count as long as the value is less than 10:

< ?php

class MyClass

    public $prop1 = "I'm a class property!";

    public static $count = 0;

    public function __construct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was initiated!';

    public function __destruct()

        echo 'The class "', __CLASS__, '" was destroyed.';

    public function __toString()

        echo "Using the toString method: ";
        return $this->getProperty();

    public function setProperty($newval)

        $this->prop1 = $newval;

    private function getProperty()

        return $this->prop1 . "";

    public static function plusOne()

        return "The count is " . ++self::$count . ".";

}

class MyOtherClass extends MyClass

    public function __construct()

        parent::__construct();
        echo "A new constructor in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

    public function newMethod()

        echo "From a new method in " . __CLASS__ . ".";

    public function callProtected()

        return $this->getProperty();

}

do

    // Call plusOne without instantiating MyClass
    echo MyClass::plusOne();
 while ( MyClass::$count < 10 );

?>

Note — When accessing static properties, the dollar sign
($) comes after the scope resolution operator.

When you load this script in your browser, the following is output:

The count is 1.
The count is 2.
The count is 3.
The count is 4.
The count is 5.
The count is 6.
The count is 7.
The count is 8.
The count is 9.
The count is 10.

Commenting with DocBlocks

“The DocBlock commenting style is a widely
accepted method of documenting classes.”

While not an official part of OOP, the DocBlock commenting style is a widely accepted method of documenting classes. Aside from providing a standard for
developers to use when writing code, it has also been adopted by many of the most popular software development kits (SDKs), such as Eclipse and NetBeans, and will be used to generate code hints.

A DocBlock is defined by using a block comment that starts with an additional asterisk:

/**
 * This is a very basic DocBlock
 */

The real power of DocBlocks comes with the ability to use tags, which start with an at symbol (@) immediately followed by the tag name and the value of the tag. DocBlock tags allow developers to define authors of a file, the license for a class, the property or method information, and other useful information.

The most common tags used follow:

• @author: The author of the current element (which might be a class, file, method, or any bit of code) are listed using this tag. Multiple author tags can be used in the same DocBlock if more than one author is credited. The format for the author name is John Doe .
• @copyright: This signifies the copyright year and name of the copyright holder for the current element. The format is 2010 Copyright Holder.
• @license: This links to the license for the current element. The format for the license information is
  http://www.example.com/path/to/license.txt License Name.
• @var: This holds the type and description of a variable or class property. The format is type element description.
• @param: This tag shows the type and description of a function or method parameter. The format is type $element_name element description.
• @return: The type and description of the return value of a function or method are provided in this tag. The format is type return element description.

A sample class commented with DocBlocks might look like this:

< ?php

/**
 * A simple class
 *
 * This is the long description for this class,
 * which can span as many lines as needed. It is
 * not required, whereas the short description is
 * necessary.
 *
 * It can also span multiple paragraphs if the
 * description merits that much verbiage.
 *
 * @author Jason Lengstorf 
 * @copyright 2010 Ennui Design
 * @license http://www.php.net/license/3_01.txt PHP License 3.01
 */
class SimpleClass

    /**
     * A public variable
     *
     * @var string stores data for the class
     */
    public $foo;

    /**
     * Sets $foo to a new value upon class instantiation
     *
     * @param string $val a value required for the class
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct($val)

        $this->foo = $val;

    /**
     * Multiplies two integers
     *
     * Accepts a pair of integers and returns the
     * product of the two.
     *
     * @param int $bat a number to be multiplied
     * @param int $baz a number to be multiplied
     * @return int the product of the two parameters
     */
    public function bar($bat, $baz)

        return $bat * $baz;

}

?>

Once you scan the preceding class, the benefits of DocBlock are apparent: everything is clearly defined so that the next developer can pick up the code and never have to wonder what a snippet of code does or what it should contain.

Comparing Object-Oriented and Procedural Code

There’s not really a right and wrong way to write code. That being said, this section outlines a strong argument for adopting an object-oriented approach in software development, especially in large applications.

Reason 1: Ease of Implementation

“While it may be daunting at first, OOP actually provides an easier approach to dealing with data.”

While it may be daunting at first, OOP actually provides an easier approach to dealing with data. Because an object can store data internally, variables don’t need to be passed from function to function to work properly.

Also, because multiple instances of the same class can exist simultaneously, dealing with large data sets is infinitely easier. For instance, imagine you have two people’s information being processed in a file. They need names, occupations, and ages.

The Procedural Approach

Here’s the procedural approach to our example:

< ?php

function changeJob($person, $newjob)

    $person'job' = $newjob; // Change the person's job
    return $person;

function happyBirthday($person)

    ++$person'age'; // Add 1 to the person's age
    return $person;

$person1 = array(
    'name' => 'Tom',
    'job' => 'Button-Pusher',
    'age' => 34
);

$person2 = array(
    'name' => 'John',
    'job' => 'Lever-Puller',
    'age' => 41
);

// Output the starting values for the people
echo "

Person 1: ", print_r($person1, TRUE), "

“;
echo “

Person 2: ", print_r($person2, TRUE), "

“;

// Tom got a promotion and had a birthday
$person1 = changeJob($person1, 'Box-Mover');
$person1 = happyBirthday($person1);

// John just had a birthday
$person2 = happyBirthday($person2);

// Output the new values for the people
echo “

Person 1: ", print_r($person1, TRUE), "

“;
echo “

Person 2: ", print_r($person2, TRUE), "

“;

?>

When executed, the code outputs the following:

Person 1: Array
(
    name => Tom
    job => Button-Pusher
    age => 34
)
Person 2: Array
(
    name => John
    job => Lever-Puller
    age => 41
)
Person 1: Array
(
    name => Tom
    job => Box-Mover
    age => 35
)
Person 2: Array
(
    name => John
    job => Lever-Puller
    age => 42
)

While this code isn’t necessarily bad, there’s a lot to keep in mind while coding. The array of the affected person’s attributes must be passed and returned from each function call, which leaves margin for error.

To clean up this example, it would be desirable to leave as few things up to the developer as possible. Only absolutely essential information for the current operation should need to be passed to the functions.

This is where OOP steps in and helps you clean things up.

The OOP Approach

Here’s the OOP approach to our example:

< ?php

class Person

    private $_name;
    private $_job;
    private $_age;

    public function __construct($name, $job, $age)

        $this->_name = $name;
        $this->_job = $job;
        $this->_age = $age;

    public function changeJob($newjob)

        $this->_job = $newjob;

    public function happyBirthday()

        ++$this->_age;

}

// Create two new people
$person1 = new Person("Tom", "Button-Pusher", 34);
$person2 = new Person("John", "Lever Puller", 41);

// Output their starting point
echo "

Person 1: ", print_r($person1, TRUE), "

“;
echo “

Person 2: ", print_r($person2, TRUE), "

“;

// Give Tom a promotion and a birthday
$person1->changeJob(“Box-Mover”);
$person1->happyBirthday();

// John just gets a year older
$person2->happyBirthday();

// Output the ending values
echo “

Person 1: ", print_r($person1, TRUE), "

“;
echo “

Person 2: ", print_r($person2, TRUE), "

“;

?>

This outputs the following in the browser:

Person 1: Person Object
(
    _name:private => Tom
    _job:private => Button-Pusher
    _age:private => 34
)

Person 2: Person Object
(
    _name:private => John
    _job:private => Lever Puller
    _age:private => 41
)

Person 1: Person Object
(
    _name:private => Tom
    _job:private => Box-Mover
    _age:private => 35
)

Person 2: Person Object
(
    _name:private => John
    _job:private => Lever Puller
    _age:private => 42
)

There’s a little bit more setup involved to make the approach object oriented, but after the class is defined, creating and modifying people is a breeze; a person’s information does not need to be passed or returned from methods, and only absolutely essential information is passed to each method.

“OOP will significantly reduce your workload if implemented properly.”

On the small scale, this difference may not seem like much, but as your applications grow in size, OOP will significantly reduce your workload if implemented properly.

Tip — Not everything needs to be object oriented. A quick function that handles something small in one place inside the application does not necessarily need to be wrapped in a class. Use your best judgment when deciding between object-oriented and procedural approaches.

Reason 2: Better Organization

Another benefit of OOP is how well it lends itself to being easily packaged and cataloged. Each class can generally be kept in its own separate file, and if a uniform naming convention is used, accessing the classes is extremely simple.

Assume you’ve got an application with 150 classes that are called dynamically through a controller file at the root of your application filesystem. All 150 classes follow the naming convention class.classname.inc.php and reside in the inc folder of your application.

The controller can implement PHP’s __autoload() function to dynamically pull in only the classes it needs as they are called, rather than including all 150 in the controller file just in case or coming up with some clever way of including the files in your own code:

< ?php
    function __autoload($class_name)

        include_once 'inc/class.' . $class_name . '.inc.php';

?>

Having each class in a separate file also makes code more portable and easier to reuse in new applications without a bunch of copying and pasting.

Reason 3: Easier Maintenance

Due to the more compact nature of OOP when done correctly, changes in the code are usually much easier to spot and make than in a long spaghetti code procedural implementation.

If a particular array of information gains a new attribute, a procedural piece of software may require (in a worst-case scenario) that the new attribute be added to each function that uses the array.

An OOP application could potentially be updated as easily adding the new property and then adding the methods that deal with said property.

A lot of the benefits covered in this section are the product of OOP in combination with DRY programming practices. It is definitely possible to create easy-to-maintain procedural code that doesn’t cause nightmares, and it is equally possible to create awful object-oriented code. Pro PHP and jQuery will attempt to demonstrate a combination of good coding habits in conjunction with OOP to generate clean code that’s easy to read and maintain.

Summary

At this point, you should feel comfortable with the object-oriented programming style. Learning OOP is a great way to take your programming to that next level. When implemented properly, OOP will help you produce easy-to-read, easy-to-maintain, portable code that will save you (and the developers who work with you) hours of extra work.

This is a sample show case,It will break the table attribut (ex: AUTOINCREMENT,PRIMARY KEY….)
