PHP => Object Oriented
• With PHP 5, an object oriented approach is the preferred
pattern.
• Libraries are evolving toward OOP.

Object Oriented Programming
(OOP)
Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming
paradigm that represents concepts as "objects" that
have data fields (attributes that describe the object) and
associated procedures known as methods. Objects,
which are usually instances of classes, are used to
interact with one another to design applications and
computer programs.

Definitions
• Class - a template - Dog
• Method - A defined capability of a class - bark()
• Object or Instance - A particular instance of a class -
Lassie

Terminology: Class
Defines the abstract characteristics of a thing (object), including
the thing’s characteristics (its attributes, fields, or properties)
and the thing’s behaviors (the things it can do, or methods,
operations, or features). One might say that a class is a
blueprint or factory that describes the nature of something. For
example, the class Dog would consist of traits shared by all
dogs, such as breed and fur color (characteristics), and the
ability to bark and sit (behaviors).

Terminology: Instance
One can have an instance of a class or a particular object.
The instance is the actual object created at runtime. In
programmer jargon, the Lassie object is an instance of
the Dog class. The set of values of the attributes of a
particular object is called its state. The object consists of
state and the behavior that is defined in the object’s class.
Object and Instance are often used interchangeably.

Terminology: Method
An object’s abilities. In language, methods are verbs. Lassie,
being a Dog, has the ability to bark. So bark() is one of Lassie’s
methods. She may have other methods as well, for example
sit() or eat() or walk() or save_timmy(). Within the program,
using a method usually affects only one particular object; all
Dogs can bark, but you need only one particular dog to do the
barking.
Method and Message are often used interchangeably.

Two New Operators
• Access “static item” in a class
echo DateTime::RFC822."n";
• Access item in an object
echo $z->format('Y-m-d')."n";

echo DateTime::RFC822."n";
D, d M y H:i:s O

$x = new DateTime();
$y = new DateTime('now');
$z = new DateTime('2012-01-31');

$x = new DateTime('1999-04-31');
$oops = DateTime::getLastErrors();
print_r($oops);
Array
(
[warning_count] => 1
[warnings] => Array
(
[11] => The parsed date was invalid
)
[error_count] => 0
[errors] => Array

$z = new DateTime('2012-01-31');

Object Life Cycle
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructor_(computer_science)

Object Life Cycle
• Objects are created, used and discarded.
• We have special blocks of code (methods) that get called
- At the moment of creation (constructor)
- At the moment of destruction (destructor)
• Constructors are used a lot.
• Destructors are seldom used.

Constructor
The primary purpose of the constructor is to set up some
instance variables to have the proper initial values when the
object is created.

class PartyAnimal {
function __construct() {
echo("Constructedn");
}
function something() {
echo("Somethingn");
}
function __destruct() {
echo("Destructedn");
}
}
echo("--Onen");
$x = new PartyAnimal();
echo("--Twon");
$y = new PartyAnimal();
echo("--Threen");
$x->something();
echo("--The End?n");
--One
Constructed
--Two
Constructed
--Three
Something
--The End?
Destructed
Destructed
party.php

Many Instances
• We can create lots of objects - the class is the template
for the object.
• We can store each distinct object in its own variable.
• We call this having multiple instances of the same class.
• Each instance has its own copy of the instance variables.

class Hello {
protected $lang; // Only accessible in the class
function __construct($lang) {
$this->lang = $lang;
}
function greet() {
if ( $this->lang == 'fr' ) return 'Bonjour';
if ( $this->lang == 'es' ) return 'Hola';
return 'Hello';
}
}
$hi = new Hello('es');
echo $hi->greet()."n";
Hola
hello.php

Definitions
• Method or Message - A defined capability of a class -
bark()
Lassie
• Constructor - A method which is called when the
instance / object is created

Inheritance
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.inheritance.php

Inheritance
• When we make a new class we can reuse an existing
class and inherit all the capabilities of an existing class
and then add our own little bit to make our new class
• Another form of store and reuse
• Write once - reuse many times
• The new class (child) has all the capabilities of the old
class (parent) - and then some more

Terminology:
Inheritance
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming
“Subclasses” are more specialized versions of a class, which
inherit attributes and behaviors from their parent classes, and
can introduce their own.

class Hello {
protected $lang;
function __construct($lang) { ... }
function greet() { ... }
}
class Social extends Hello {
function bye() {
if ( $this->lang == 'fr' ) return 'Au revoir';
if ( $this->lang == 'es' ) return 'Adios';
return 'goodbye';
}
}
$hi = new Social('es');
echo $hi->greet()."n";
echo $hi->bye()."n";
Hola
Adios
goodbye.php

Definitions
• Method or Message - A defined capability of a class -
bark()
Lassie
• Constructor - A method which is called when the instance
/ object is created
• Inheritance - the ability to take a class and extend it to
make a new class

Visibility
Class member variables also have scope.
• Public – can be accessed outside the class, inside the
class, and in derived classes
• Protected – can be accessed inside the class, and in
derived classes
• Private – can only be accessed inside the class (i.e. private
variables are not visible in derived classes)
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.visibility.php

class MyClass
{
public $pub = 'Public';
protected $pro = 'Protected';
private $priv = 'Private';
function printHello()
{
echo $this->pub."n";
echo $this->pro."n";
echo $this->priv."n";
}
}
$obj = new MyClass();
echo $obj->pub."n"; // Works
echo $obj->pro."n"; // Fatal Error
echo $obj->priv."n"; // Fatal Error
$obj->printHello(); // Shows Public, Protected and Private
Public
Public
Protected
Private
visibility.php

class MyClass2 extends MyClass
{
function printHello()
{
echo $this->pub."n";
echo $this->pro."n";
echo $this->priv."n"; // Undefined
}
}
echo("--- MyClass2 ---n");
$obj2 = new MyClass2();
echo $obj2->pub."n"; // Works
$obj2->printHello(); // Shows Public, Protected, Undefined
--- MyClass2 ---
Public
Public
Protected
(false)

Building an Object from
Scratch
• Sometimes a developer will prefer to make an object with
public key-value pairs rather than an array.
• Use where appropriate…

$player = new stdClass();
$player->name = "Chuck";
$player->score = 0;
$player->score++;
print_r($player);
class Player {
public $name = "Sally";
public $score = 0;
}
$p2 = new Player();
$p2->score++;
print_r($p2);
stdClass Object
(
[name] => Chuck
[score] => 1
)
Player Object
(
[name] => Sally
[score] => 1
)
scratch.php

Summary
• Object Oriented programming is a very structured approach to
code reuse.
• There is a trend away from global function names and toward
OO.
• We can group data and functionality together and create
many independent instances of a class.
