I have classes in two different namespaces, for example:
Controller is in \Core, Index is in \Public
In my index.php, I have a class_alias for all of the \Core classes, so you can call them directly: $controller = new Controller();
. This works without issue.
My problem is when I try to extend the class. Since Index & Controller are in different namespaces, it tries to find Controller in the \Public namespace so this doesn't work:
<?php
namespace Panel\Pub;
class Index extends Controller {
Is there any way around this so I can use the class alias in the extends function? I know I can use \Core\Controller and it will work, but I'm trying to use aliases to make core functions more easily accessible.
Edit: Found one workaround After doing some more testing, I found that using \ in front of the alias in the extend seems to work. Not as ideal as no \ but currently the best solution results in:
class Index extends \Controller { }
Still looking for other advice on a work around or different method of extending controller.
Thanks!
