Re: [PHP] Java - toString() <-> php - ?
If you use PHP 5 just use the __toString() magic method which does
exactly that.

I think they may do what you want without using the toString method,
which for what you're describing is basicly an ugly hack.
One more thing: Enlighten me: What exactly do you mean by "live
evolution" in your php/java context.
If in php context you have class, say, A:
class A
{
var $t1;
var $t2;
var $t3;
//After, you have object contructor of type A
//we have something like this
function A ($var1, $var2, $var3)
{
$this -> t1 = $var1;
$this -> t2 = $var2;
$this -> t3 = $var3;
}
some other code
}
//than in some other class we have something like this:
class someOtherClass
{
$aConstructor = new A(1,2,3);
//values of t1, t2 and t3 are 1,2 and 3 now
}
Right? yes.
How you can you do something like this inside of "someOtherClass"
print ($aConstructor);
to finally have some nice output like
Value of t1 is 1;
Value of t2 is 2;
Value of T3 is 3;
or just:
1
2
3
Without creating functions like getValues()
function getValues()
{
print ($this -> t1);
print ($this -> t2);
print ($this -> t3);
}
and after explicit invoke function:
$aConstructor -> getValues();
So, what I want is
this: print ($aConstructor);
and not this:
$aContructor -> getValues();
Am I clear :-)

Is there similar kind of function in php that help us to print the state
of object in his "life evolution"?
there is but it's use is limited and currently AFAIR it only works on
internally defined
classes the method is called __toString() - from what I have read and
played with it (not
recently though) the fucntionality is _bit_ 'halfbaked' - as in the internals
guys are still
pondering how to imnplement this as nicely as possible.
an example:
the problem with implementing this is the fact that php is dynamically typed -
and it
autocasts types all over the place - very handy BUT it makes a __toString()
[magic] method
very hard to implement in a way that is obvious to the people using it (try
playing around with
the SimpleXML extension to see how it can warp your brain! well it makes my
head spin anyway :-)
but don't take my word for it - try it yourself, oh and also take a dive into
the [php]internals mailing
list archives - lots has been discussed about this function AFAIR.

[PHP] Java - toString() <-> php - ?
To print "state" of object in Java I can define toString() function and
then I can do something like this:
Java exemple:
*
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class ReadTextFromFile
{
private static String line;
private static String Fable = new String ("");
private static String NomFable;
private static int cptLine = 0;
private static int nbrPersonnes = 0;
private static String nomPersonnes = new String ("");
private static ArrayList AListe = new ArrayList(nbrPersonnes);
//**
public String toString()
{
return getClass().getName()
+ " [ Nom de la fable: "+ NomFable
+ " <==> Nombre de personnes dans dialogue: " + nbrPersonnes
+ " ] "
;
}
