I am trying to declare an object by the value held in a string. So if a string holds 'Class1' i want to declare it by type Class1.
Something like this
$CT = "Class1";
if (class_exists($CT))
$MyClass = new Type($CT);
I can do something like the following, but would rather do it as above if possible.
if (isset($_GET["CT"]))
$CT = $_GET["CT"];
else
$CT = "Class1";
echo "CT = " . $CT . "<br>";
switch ($CT)
{
case "Class1":
$MyClass = new Class1;
break;
case "Class2":
$MyClass = new Class2;
break;
default:
$MyClass = new Class1;
}
echo $MyClass->Result();
class Class1
{
function Result()
{
return "I am Class 1";
}
}
class Class2
{
function Result()
{
return "I am Class 2";
}
}
My Answer:
'Class1';
$object = new $CT();
