Hi, I have simple PHP code. <?php /************************************** DB ******************************/ class db { var $connect_id; function open( $database, $host, $user, $password ) { $this->connect_id = @sybase_connect( $host, $user, $password ); if ( $this->connect_id ) { $result = @sybase_select_db( $database ); if ( !$result ) { $this->connect_id = $result; } return $this->connect_id; } else { return 0; } } }; // End class /************************************** QUERY ***************************/ class query { var $result; var $was_error; function query( &$db, $query = "" ) { global $php_errormsg; global $GLOBALS; $this->was_error=0; //remove comment sings at line below to get OK result //$query = "select * from mytab"; $this->result = @sybase_query( $query, $db->connect_id ); if( $this->result == FALSE ) { $fh = fopen( "/tmp/syberror.log", "a" ); fwrite( $fh, 'PHP_ERRORMSG:' . $php_errormsg . "\n" ); fwrite( $fh, 'PHP_ERRORMSG:' . $GLOBALS[ "php_errormsg" ] . "\n" ); fwrite( $fh, $query."\n" ); fclose( $fh ); $this->was_error = 1; } } function error() { if( $this->was_error ) $result = 1; else $result = 0; return $result; } }; // End class $dbName='mydb'; $dbUser='sa'; $dbPass=''; $dbServer='SYBASE'; $DB = new db(); $DB->open( $dbName, $dbServer, $dbUser, $dbPass ); $q = new query($DB); //dummy query for generic operations $query = "select * from mytab"; $q->query( $DB, $query ); //there is called query if ( $q->error() ) { //I always get WRONG when doesn't change the value of $query paramater inside query() method print( 'WRONG' ); } else { //I always get OK when change the value of $query paramater inside query() method print( 'OK' ); } ?> When I run script above I got WRONG message. Then I changed value of the $query parameter inside query method of query class and rerun the script then I got OK. Funny, isn't it ???. What is it wrong ??? It is NOT MY FIRST TIME when I'm using PHP, Apache and Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise. Till this time I've never used class for connecting and querying database. I have my own scripts to connect/query SYBASE database, but I tried to use classes. It's more useful and powerful. Second problem. How to get values of the global variables inside methods of any class ??? Code inside method query() doesn't return values of global variable $php_errormsg (trace error flag is ON).
