lithium\core\Object
Base class in Lithium's hierarchy, from which all concrete classes inherit. This class defines several conventions for how classes in Lithium should be structured:
- Universal constructor: Any class which defines a
__construct()
method should take exactly one parameter ($config
), and that parameter should always be an array. Any settings passed to the constructor will be stored in the$_config
property of the object. - Initialization / automatic configuration: After the constructor, the
_init()
method is called. This method can be used to initialize the object, keeping complex logic and high-overhead or difficult to test operations out of the constructor. This method is called automatically byObject::__construct()
, but may be disabled by passing'init' => false
to the constructor. The initializer is also used for automatically assigning object properties. See the documentation on the_init()
method for more details. - Testing / misc.: The
__set_state()
method provides a default implementation of the PHP magic method (works withvar_export()
) which can instantiate an object with a static method call. Finally, the_stop()
method may be used instead ofexit()
, as it can be overridden for testing purposes.
