[PHP] Calling object variables is untidy and lengthy - any other ideas?
Here's the problem. I have a php script which generates a Year-on-Year change graph, works fine, does the job. I want to turn it into an object. Unfortunately I have to rename all references to variables in the object to $this-width for example. Is there a way I can just refer to them as before. With plenty of complex formulas in it, having $this- everywhere makes it a mess to look at and a nightmare to debug. Any thoughts?

store the vars in an array, then make a referance to the array
class a(
var $a = array();
function a($width,$height){
$this-a['width'] = $width;
$this-a['height'] = $height;
}
function b(){
$b = $this-a;
echo 'height '.$b['height'];
echo ' width '.$b['width'].'br';
}
}
cuts down on the $this- and maybe more readable.question of taste really :)

I have one, instead of something like $this-width you can have something like $GLOBALS['width']. Personally I wouldn't recommend it, and I don't recommend turning on register globals so that you can just use $width. That said, if you have no worries about security, then go ahead and turn register globals on, then you can use $width. Mostly though, I'd just use $this-width :) Cheers, Rob.
