Uncaught Error: Class 'Google\AdsApi\Examples\

Question

I have php-xml installed and it runs fine with other php files using the following code to display xml on a web site:

$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadXML(html_entity_decode($xml), LIBXML_NOXMLDECL);
echo $doc->saveXML();

But it won't work in Google AdWords Report API. It obviously has something to do with the namespace Google\AdsApi\Examples\AdWords\v201809\Reporting; I am not familiar with PHP and wonder how to get this DOMDocument working inside the Reporting namespace. Thanks.

Answer 1

You need to add a backslash \ before the DOMDocument to load the class from the global namespace. Otherwise php searches for the DOMDocument class in your current namespace.

If you need more information about this, you may want to take a look at the php documentation for global namespaces:

$doc = new \DOMDocument();
