ID: 53229 Comment by: uramihsayibok at gmail dot com Reported by: sjors dot vanleeuwen at itsxtreme dot com Summary: Change of getters and setters Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Class/Object related PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N New Comment: This is the umpteenth request for this feature. Look at the PHP RFC Wiki (http://wiki.php.net/rfc), specifically "Property get/set syntax" (http://wiki.php.net/rfc/propertygetsetsyntax). Meanwhile, a protip for you: 1. Use a public $a and public $b. 2. Unset the variables in your constructor. 3. Implement __get and __set however you see fit. Example: use protected _getA() and _setA() methods.

Example: Class Test { private $_a; private $_b; public function get a() { return $this->_a; } } this way the private $_b isn't available to the outside world which is the case with out of the box __get. It also (in my opinion) gives your code a much cleaner look and you can do special things if needed in your functions too. in the __get function you'll have to make if statements or other checks to get the same result. You can also just use: Example: Class Test { private $_a; private $_b; public function a() { return $this->_a; } } but then you would have to use: $test->a() instead of $test->a which gives a wrong assumption that you are calling a function which you are not, you are calling a property of your object. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53229&edit=1
