You'd be right if the name of class was unique in each class.inc.php.
However, PHP doesn't allow the same class name to be used more than
once, regardless of the include file it's from. It's the same with
function names. The problem is if php allowed you to have two (or more)
classes with the same name it wouldn't know which one to choose when you
used that name - in your case it is obvious because you want to use the
most recently declared class but php can't be excepected to guess that.
You can, however, do something like:
<?php
class ipbsdk {
...
}
foreach (..) {
$var = new ipbsdk();
}
?>
Which would set $var to a new instance of the class every time you loop.
You could null the variable every time but it's not required.
One solution for you might be to redesign the code so you only need one
ipbsdk class , which could take the path as an argument. This class
could then be repeatedly instantiated with a different path each loop,
something like this:
foreach (...) {
...
$SDK = new ipbsdk($fetchd['path']);
...
}
I think your current strategy will lead to a dead end, unless someone
else can see something I'm missing (which is highly likely!).
Hope this helps a little.
