php OOP question.

Good day everyone! I'm currently learning things up i have a question about extending a class.

On a file called MyClass.php there are two classes MyClass and the OtherClass that extends the Myclass and it works fine inheriting the superclass attributes.


<?php


class MyClass {
const CONST_VALUE = 'A constant value';


public function __construct () {
}

function index () {
return 'index';
}


function hello () {
return 'Hello';
}






}


class OtherClass extends MyClass {

function __construct() {
parent:: __construct();
}

function index () {
echo 'Other class index';
}
}


$OtherClass = new OtherClass();
echo $OtherClass->hello();
Output: "Hello"


but when i tried transferring the OtherClass into another module that extends the MyClass, it throws a server error. I don't wanna put it in the same module.

MyClass.php:


class MyClass {
const CONST_VALUE = 'A constant value';


public function __construct () {
//echo 'loaded constructor<br />';
}

function index () {
return 'index';
}


function hello () {
return 'Hello';
}






}

OtherClass.php:


class OtherClass extends MyClass {

function __construct() {
parent:: __construct();
}

function index () {
echo 'Other class index';
}
}


$OtherClass = new OtherClass();
$OtherClass->hello();


any help will be greatly appreciated from a beginner like me. thankyou. :)

You need to "require" or "include" MyClass.php in OtherClass.php, so that the contents will be available to it.

See http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php
