POPHP - Possible to call member function of object stored in an array?
text
Body
copied!<p>I'm new to PHP and spent some time searching for a similar question, but none seemed to quite answer it for me.</p> <p>I have an array of Objects (a class I created called StatusMessage) and I want to access a member function of each object in the array. I am able to do this using a foreach loop, but I only need to access the first 10 objects (they are sorted) so I am trying to use a for loop. When I make the member function calls, I get a fatal error about not being able to call member functions on non-objects. Do the StatusMessage objects in $statObjs need to be cast or something?</p> <p>Any suggestions?</p> <pre><code>function collectStatuses($statusesAPI){ $statusObjects = Array(); foreach($statusesAPI as $status) { //StatusMessage is a class I created array_push($statusObjects, new StatusMessage($status)); } return $statusObjects; } //$statutuses[data] was populated further up $statObjs = collectStatuses($statuses[data]); //This loop works, but prints all StatusMessage objects in $statObjs foreach ($statObjs as $value) { //getInteractions() and getMessages() are both member functions of the StatusMessage class I created. echo '[' . $value->getInteractions() . '] ' . $value->getMessage(); } //This loop doesn't work. Throws the error mentioned above for ($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) { echo '[' . $statObjs[$i]->getInteractions() . '] ' . $statObjs[$i]->getMessage(); } </code></pre>
