I have a class file: we'll call it class.php. The functionality of that is to grab info from an ini file (yeah, I posted the question about security and was given the great suggestion to use either a config file or an ini file to hold the DB information).
Essentially, my class is this:
<?php
class myClass
{
public function getAttached()
{
$file = "../../myFile.ini";
if (!$settings = parse_ini_file($file, TRUE)) throw new exception('Unable to open ' . $file . '.');
$hoost = $settings['mysqli']['default_host'];
$useer = $settings['mysqli']['default_user'];
$pazz = $settings['mysqli']['default_pw'];
$dbs = $settings['mysqli']['default_db'];
$con = mysqli_connect($hoost ,$useer, $pazz, $dbs);
return $con;
}
}
$obj = new myClass();
$obj->getAttached();
$vals = $obj->getAttached();
//echo $vals; //didn't know if I should echo this or not.
?>
I want to call this in my somePage.php file to make my "mysqli" connection and go from there...
I tried this:
require_once('class.php');
getAttached();
Obviously that didn't work (I knew it wouldn't but - I did it anyway just to see if "maybe"), so - how do I call that function from my class file in the regular php page?
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
