PHP: print a variable contained in a method - php

Question

I hope someone can help me with this:
I have 2 php file to elaborate paypal IPN, paypalIPN.php and ipnlistener.php.
ipnlistener.php contains IpnListener class with many functions inside as follow:
class IpnListener
{
/**
* If true, the recommended cURL PHP library is used to send the post back
* to PayPal. If flase then fsockopen() is used. Default true.
*
* #var boolean
*/
public $use_curl = true;
/**
* If true, cURL will use the CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION to follow any
* "Location: ..." headers in the response.
*
* #var boolean
*/
public $follow_location = false;
/**
* If true, the paypal sandbox URI www.sandbox.paypal.com is used for the
* post back. If false, the live URI www.paypal.com is used. Default false.
*
* #var boolean
*/
public $use_sandbox = true;
/**
* The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the PayPal server to respond
* before timing out. Default 30 seconds.
*
* #var int
*/
public $timeout = 30;
/**
* If true, enable SSL certification validation when using cURL
*
* #var boolean
*/
public $verify_ssl = true;
private $_errors = array();
private $post_data;
private $rawPostData; // raw data from php://input
private $post_uri = '';
private $response_status = '';
private $response = '';

thanks to this part:
file_put_contents('dati.log', print_r($myPost, true));
file_put_contents('dato.log', print_r("numero transazione: ".$myPost['txn_id'], true));
I'm able to save a log file with an array of all elements or just only one element of a PayPal transaction.
what I need to do is to print $myPost outside the IpnListener class.
How can I do it?

Answer 1

You could either return value from a method using
return $myPost;
or (better way) pass a buffering logger object as method parameter and then after method is finished, fetch and print all logger content. See example here:
https://github.com/symfony/console/blob/5.3/Output/BufferedOutput.php

Answer 2

You could go in the class, declare a $tempMyPost as public.
each time you iterate and add something to $myPost, also do $this->tempMyPost
for example if you have
$myPost[$keyval[0]] = urldecode($keyval[1]);
also do
$this->tempMyPost[$keyval[0]] = urldecode($keyval[1]);
then, go outside the object, below the place you instantiate it and do
print_r($object->tempMyPost);
where $object is the name of the variable that holds your object.
