Mutiple classes in one file from 3rd party.

[amk79 (Aaron)]

I have an API file that defines many helper classes and objects in one file… I have been reading and it seems I can’t include these properly in Yii. This seems wrong. Here is the example file. Its for a very large payment processor in canada.

Do I really need to create a file for each class?

Example: (edited length of posted code)

Double post sorry!

[softark]

Sorry, but please don’t bother us with the lengthy code. No one will read it.

I think you can just include the file in "index.php".

i think You have to put all your classes under one namespace.

@Yii3

All those classes in the library are under the global namespace.

I don’t think we need to place them in a specific namespace, unless you need to use other classes with the same names. All the classes in the library seems to be named with a common prefix of “mpg” in order to avoid a name collision, so probably we will be safe to use them as they are.

The same thing goes with the famous PHPExcel library that is one of my favorites. I’m using it with Yii 2.0 without any problem. The classes of the library are not namespaced, but have a common prefix of “PHPExcel_”.

One of the drawbacks of "multiple classes in a single file" might be a fact that you may not be able to autoload the classes in the library. You may have to "include" or "require" the file explicitly. But that should not be a big problem in this case.

Thanks for the quick reply. I will refrain from posting large code snippets.

I included the file in the index.php in the frontend\web folder.

I get an error that

Class ‘common\models\mpgTransaction’ not found when I use

$mpgTxn = new mpgTransaction($txnArray);

What should I put at the top of the file that is using these classes?

[amk79 (Aaron)]

Hey so I was able to get Yii to recognize the class by putting a preceding forward slash like below. I read that in some artivcle last night and guessed.

$mpgTxn = new \mpgTransaction($txnArray);

What does the slash do?

[softark]

What does the slash do?

It indicates the root of the namespace.

Without it, names are considered to belong to the current namespace like "common\models".

Thanks so much. This will be very very helpful in the future.
