You are forgetting one minor thing - an object may be instantiated
from a
piece of procedural code. In fact the very first object can only be
instantiated from procedural code.
I'm not sure what you mean by the second sentence here; which is the
"very
first object"?
Before you can use an object you must instantiate it using "$object =
new <classname>". For the very first object this line can only be
performed in procedural code. It cannot be perform within the first
object as the first object must be instantiated externally.
Ah, I see, yes. I don't think that's what was meant by "procedural code"
in this case, though. We were talking about extensions which either
represent all their functionality procedurally (as with file I/O, for
instance), or which include a procedural wrapper for those not
comfortable with OO (such as mysqli). The point being that these
functions are implemented in a different style, including their
error-handling conventions.
