Hi
One way is to create an external reference to your class and use that in
the cleanup function. To make the cleanup function visible it has to be
declared inside the constructor (which makes it invisible to the rest of
the class:) This is how I have done it:
<?
$ref = array();
class cRoute{
function cRoute(){
global $ref;
$ref[] =& $this;
//register the shutdown function in case people who use this
class dont call the appropiate close methods.
register_shutdown_function("cleanup");
function cleanup(){
global $ref;
/cleanup.
trigger_error("Please call close() to prevent problems, close()
has been called for you.");
$ref[0]->close();
}
}
function close(){
//close open sockets, etc.
mail("yourEmailHere","callback","Function Close called\n");
}
}
$clean = new cRoute;
echo "exiting now <br>";
exit;
?>
