I'd like to call a Class inside a Class

PHP Code:

require_once(DIR . '/includes/twitter.php');

class vbtwitter{
    
    /**
     * Twitter object
     *
     * @var twitter object
     */
    private $twitterconnection;
    
    function __construct()
    {

    }
    
    function init()
    {
        global $vbulletin;
        $this->twitterconnection = new Twitter($vbulletin->userinfo['twitter_username'], $vbulletin->userinfo['twitter_password'], 'vbtwitter');
    }
    
    public function sendthread(&$threadid)
    {
        // and here now do things with $this->twitterconnection like $this->twitterconnection->method('foo');
    } 


Is something like this possible?

You'll have to write wrapper functions. You can't directly access the nested classes from outside, so wrapper functions will let you do that.

outer_class()
{
     inner_class()
     {
          //...
          $inner_variable = 'inside';
     }
     
     $g = new inner_class();
     function access_inner_class_var()
     {
          return $g->inner_variable;
     }
}

$z = new outer_class();

[S]$failed = $z->$g->inner_variable;[/S]
$success = $z->access_inner_class_var();

See? Alternatively, you could declare the inner class as public - but this is generally considered bad programming practice.
