gather classes together

[xploita]

hello,
using php4
i'm having a problem gathering all my classes together.i have three classes(ErrorHandler,i18n and templateEngine),placed in separate files.
should i create one class and inherit from it or what?
another thing,the following example is not working.any ideas why not?

<?php
class A
{
    var $name = "name";
    function getname()
    {
       return $this->name;
    }
}

class B 
{
    function bar()
    {
        $name = A::getname();
        echo $name;
    }
}
?>

Hi!

your example will not work.
Reason: you have class A with defined variable. but when you use "A::method()" you don't create class variable. you just call methods from class. So, in methods of class "A" variable $this not defined at this moment.
for right work you can use:

PHP Code:

$classA = new A();
$name = $classA->getname();
echo $name; 


Take look on any book about Object-Oriented Programming, read section about anonymous copy of class.

just create class variables from your different class.

PHP Code:

include_once('templateEngine.php');
$template = new templateEngine(<params>); 


class inherit need only for extend your classes. for add new methods to your class variables.
