php call member variables off a class within static method

Question

Hello,

I am using some method to autoload helper files with functions The only problem I am having now, is how to call the variables in that class.

Because I am not instantiating it as an object $this won't work. But what will??

class some_helperclass {

var $some_variable  = '007';

public static function some_func()
    {
    //return 'all ok';
    if (self::some_variable !== FALSE) 
    {
       return  self::ip_adres;
    }
}

I can call the function from anywhere now with the help from spl_autoload_register()

like this:

some_helperclass:: some_func();

thanks, Richard

Answer 1

Declare the variable as static too.

private static $some_variable;

Answer 2

You have to use self::$some_variable. Put the $ in there.

The member variable has to be declared static too.
