Bug description: new function get_object_name()
Description:
------------
Currently to get the objects variable name within the object you must pass
it as a parameter and have the constructor define it.
This solution while simple would be tidier if there was a function that
could retrieve the object's variable instance from inside itself.
Reproduce code:
---------------
Currently
<?php
class myClass {
function __construct($objectName) {
$this->objectName = $objectName;
}
function printName() {
echo "the name of this object instance is ".$this->objectName;
}
}
$object = 'myObject';
$$object = new myClass('$object');
$$object->printName();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
How it might be done:
<?php
class myClass {
function printName() {
echo "the name of this object instance is
".$this->get_object_name();
}
}
$object = 'myObject';
$$object = new myClass;
$$object->printName();
?>
