[PHP] include() and duplicate function definition
Hi, :-)
I'm making a child theme for WordPress. I need to rewrite one function
defined in ../sometheme/functions/actions.php and put that rewritten
function in wp-content/themes/sometheme-child/functions/actions.php.
But I want to preserve ../sometheme/functions/actions.php unchanged
in any way. (Future theme updates would just overwrite any changes I
made.)
So, in my new actions.php, I put an include followed by the
replacement function definition, named identically to the one I want
to replace:
?php
include '../sometheme/functions/actions.php';
function foo($arg_1, $arg_2, /* ..., */ $arg_n)
{
echo All my new code.\n;
}
?
Because this duplicate foo() function definition comes after the foo()
defined in the included file, does it replace the included foo()?
Or how can I achieve what I want?
Big thanks in advance for any suggestions. :-)
David

As far as I know it is not possible to overwrite functions in PHP
(unless you use runkit, apd). Inside classes this is possible. But
that's not the case here. Why do the functions have to be equally named?
Try to create a new function and call the original function from there
if needed...
foo2() {
foo()
}

You can check with function_exists to see if a function is already defined. If not, create it.

That's not going to happen. My point was you could check in the original file if the function is defined and if not then define it.

David,
I re-read your original post. And noticed you include the function
inside your child action.php
Is there a special reason for that? You want to overwrite the original
function in a child theme.
probably to get different functionality. So why do you need the
original function?
Just create your action.php and define the same function.
// include '../sometheme/functions/actions.php';
function foo($arg_1, $arg_2, /* ..., */ $arg_n) {
echo All my new code.\n;
}
It's code duplication. But i don't think themes should have
dependencies to one an other.
You could also create a actions.php file outside the themes folder.
wp-content/shared-functions/action.php
And then in your themes do:
theme 1
include shared-function/action.php;
foo();
theme 2
include shared-function/action.php;
foo();

Hi List,
I have a php page that updates data from one database to another when it is
run.
My query is, how can I trigger the execution of this update page from
another php / javascript without the calling page having to wait for the
update page to finish?
Basically, I think the update page needs to use:
ignore_user_abort(1);
set_time_limit(0); // I don't think the script will take more than 1 min.
At the other end I found this:
1)
http://www.mindraven.com/blog/php/run-a-php-script-in-the-background-using-ajax/
2) On that page a user suggested using *pclose(popen(‘/usr/bin/php
/path/to/something.php /dev/null ’, ‘r’)*
**However, I need this to be usable on windows servers also.
3) Finally, would pcntl_exec, pcntl_fork, exec or something be useful for
me?
Which of the above 3 options is the better one?
Other suggestions are welcome :)
Hi List,
Sorry this took so long, but I wanted to close the loop (and maybe ease some
one else's trouble :-)).
I didn't think much about the die(header('Location:
run_this_even_if_user_aborts.php')) call I was actually using to get this
working.
When I carefully looked up php.net for header, I realised it was a browser
redirect! Now wonder the script would work some times but not always.
It's clear now that every time the script worked was because I waited long
enough for the browser to be redirected before killing the page.
I finally settled on using jquery's ajax calls.
Thanks once again to the repliers.

Its work, but only the first time, if i refresh i get this exception:
exception 'FacebookRestClientException' with message 'Invalid parameter'
If i generate the token again, its work for the first time again.
Please someone have any recent tutorial to integrate facebook to some php

Re: [PHP] include() and duplicate function definition
Hi guys, :-) Just FYI, I got this answer from the theme dev: David, You don't need the include statement. If you create your function in wp-content/themes/suffusion-child/functions.php it will get automatically included. Secondly, using the same function name wouldn't work, because it would require me to encase the original function definition in actions.php in a function_exists clause. I would suggest using a different function name, then using remove_action to remove the older action and add_action to add the new action. (http://www.aquoid.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4t=3070) I'm not yet confident about how to actually implement this in code... Any tips or advice would be gratefully heard.
