PHP issue with get_class

I am working on a Zend project and it has been over 12 months since I touched Zend, I get an error in one of my functions and I cannot figure out why, I think it might be up to the site originally built in an earlier PHP version (5.2) and I am now running 5.3.

The function looks like this:

public function addDebug($mixedObject, $title = "")
    {
        $debugObject = new stdClass();
        $debugObject->title       = $title;   
        $debugObject->type        = gettype($mixedObject);
        $debugObject->className   = (!get_class($mixedObject)) ? "" : gettype($mixedObject);<-- Line error is complaining about -->
        $debugObject->mixedObject = $mixedObject; 
        array_push($this->debugArr, $debugObject);
    }

The error message looks like this:

get_class() expects parameter 1 to be object, array given in /server/app/lib/View.php on line 449

Any advice on this would be good.

Get_class function requires the parameter to be an object. The error says $ mixedObject is an array.

This can help to check if $ mixedObject is the first object:



$debugObject->className = is_object($mixedObject) ? get_class($mixedObject) : '';

Have you already checked if the $ mixedObject is actually an object? Because the error says for sure that it is not.

You can check if the given $ mixedObject is an object or not:



if (is_object($mixedObject)) { 
    $debugObject->className   = get_class($mixedObject);
} else {
    $debugObject->className   = gettype($mixedObject);
}

Edit: I also see some other error, get_class returns a string, so your check on that string will always be "true" (or false because you deny it) and then an empty string will be set. Try it like in the example above.

It expects an object to pass, but you set it to an empty string and pass it after the question mark.

It looks like you are passing like an $mixedObject

array.

Check this var with is_object

and then use gettype

(if false) or get_class

(if true).
