Hi all,
I have an application that spits out a contact form in either English or
Danish. Someone suggested I use a 'class factory' like the PEAR db
abstraction layer and that is what I'm doing.
So I choose the language like this:
$form = Form::GetFormObject($lang); //different class for each lang
No problem.
My question is related to the efficiency of this.
It is only the *properties* that are different in each language class
not the methods so I'm including all the same methods twice! That
doesn't seem terribly efficient.
I thought maybe I could init properties with a constructor in a single
class like this:
<?
class test {
function test($lang) {
if($lang=="en") {
var $lang="English";
} else if($lang="dk") {
var $lang="Danish";
}
}
}
?>
But it fails.
Is there a better way? It just seems like overkill to include 6-700
lines of methods /twice/
Many thanks....
