That's where you can use the constructor for:

class myClass {
var $var;

function myClass() {
include 'include.php';
$this->var = getVar();
}
}

However, keep in mind that this is not a very good OO design. If you have a
collection of utility functions, the best way to use them is through
static/instantiated method calls or through inheritance:

Example A (static calls):

include 'Utils.php';

class myClass {
var $var;

function myClass() {
$this->var = Utils::getVar();
}
}


Example B (inheritance):

include 'Utils.php';

class myClass extends Utils {
var $var;

function myClass() {
$this->var = $this->getVar();
}
}
