inheriting from non similar types?

Posted by D_c on 02/13/05 09:30

Hiya -

I want to create a class that inherits from a database object.

eg I have my own "user" Class, with general methods that do calculations etc.
However, it also reflects a table of the database, eg "age, location".

I want some methods called on the object to be handled by my class, but other

so at constructor time, something like

$this->parent = mysql_fetch_object($res); // returns a mysql obj with
age, loc etc records

then ...

$age = $userObj->age; // this actually comes straight from the dbase obj
$rating = $userObj->rating; // a public var calculated at construction
$life = $userObj->getSpend(); // this is a method to do a calc.

I could use a component (is the right OOP pattern word?)
$age = $userObj->dbObj->age

but I wanted to hide where the items are coming from. Also i want to
be able to just keep adding to the database without having to create
gettter/settter functions for everything...

I think python had some nice means of doing get/set functions
transparently, does PHP5 have anything like this?

thanks!
