Creating abstract methods enforces specific kinds of behavior, and static methods and data members make the implementation of a singleton pattern both easy a[r]
}Because you’ve implemented the Iterator interface you can traverse your result set using a foreach loop. The while loop above is now replaced by this:foreach($rs as $row ){ echo $row[0]." - ".$row[1]; echo "<br />\n";}As you can see, it is more difficult to implement the Iterator inte[r]
similar fashion the __get method will retrieve name. Is It Worth It?Magic set and get methods are introduced as a convenience, but it is certainly questionable whether they are worth the effort. Encouraging the use of undefined data members can easily lead to difficulties when debugging. For instanc[r]

a:hover,.navigator a:active{ color: #3300CC; background-color: #FAEBF7; text-decoration: none;}Because these hyperlinks look like buttons, it makes sense to assign the same characteristics to each of the different states represented by the pseudo-classes: link, visited, hover, and active. Finally,[r]

To see how this setting can be useful, suppose, in the style of PHP 4, that you do the following:$obj1 =& new Person();With error reporting set to E_STRICT and display_errors set to on, you’ll receive the message:Strict Standards: Assigning the return value of new by reference isdepre[r]
In this chapter you will learn about the following: The basic principles of object orientation; classes and objects; instance variables, attributes and associations; methods, operations and polymorphism; organizing classes into inheritance hierarchies; evaluating alternative implementations of simpl[r]
In this chapter you will learn about the following: Frameworks, reusable software subsystems that implement important facilities which many applications can use; the client–server architecture, an important way of designing programs in which the software is divided into two main parts: a client prog[r]
In the previous two chapters, you learned about technologies that software engineers need to master before developing applications. Now, we can start thinking about the particular problem we wish to solve. We will first put effort into understanding the background of the problem, a process called do[r]
Extending SQLite 141How It’s DoneIn this application we take advantage of some of SQLite’s advanced capa-bilities. Both triggers and views will be used. A trigger, code that executes in response to an add, edit, or delete event, will be used to mimic a datestamp field—records will be automati[r]
Don’t let the “Lite” in SQLite lead you to underestimate the capabilities of this database. Because it is bundled with PHP, there is no external server to worry about—think of it as “Lite” in the sense of “no extra baggage.” In some situations it is the ideal database to use. It[r]
