How to refer to a static constant member variable in PHP
(2 answers)
Closed 10 years ago.
So I'm trying to use this mysqli connection class (code below) but I am receiving the error message: Fatal error: Undefined class constant 'DBUSER' [...] I can't figure out why because I have set all the database connection credentials and included the config file.
My db.config.class.php:
class config {
public static $DBSERVER = "localhost"; // Set the IP or hostname of the database server you wish to connect to
public static $DBNAME = "**REMOVED**"; // Set the name of the database you wish to connect to
public static $DBUSER = "**REMOVED**"; // set the database user name you wish to use to connect to the database server
public static $DBPASSWORD = "**REMOVED**"; // set the password for the username above
public static $DBPORT = 3306;
public static $TABLEPREFIX = "";
}
mysqli.class.php:
include('db.config.class.php');
