PHP classes are keeping me from accessing the needed variable - php

Question

ok so i have a php file that includes code for do a sql insert
myfile.php
include($somewhere.'/addleads.php');
addleads.php
require_once(MAIN_CLASS_PATH."common/class.Common.php");
require_once(MAIN_CLASS_PATH."modules/Leads/class.Leads.php");
$objcommon = new common();
$objLeads = new Leads();
$Errormsg = $objLeads->AddLBCleads($_REQUEST);
class.Leads.php
class Leads extends Common{
function Leads(){
$this->Common();
$this->Leadstype = "Leadstype";
$this->Leads = "Leads";
}
function AddLBCleads($objArray){
global $_REQUEST,$objSmarty,$global_config;
$objLeads = new Leads();
$objInsertArray['txtP_Ident'] = $objArray['selProperty'];
$objInsertArray['txtFirstName'] = $objArray['txtfirstname'];
$objInsertArray['txtLastName'] = $objArray['txtlastname'];
$objInsertArray['txtEmail'] = $objArray['txtEmail'];
$objInsertArray['txtPhone'] = $objArray['txtPhone'];
$objInsertArray['txtTypeId'] = $objArray['selleadtype'];
$objInsertArray['txtComments'] = $objArray['txtcomments'];
$StrEnterdate = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$objInsertArray['txtMoveDate'] = $StrMoveDate;
$objInsertArray['txtEntereddate'] = $StrEnterdate;
$current_id = $this->AddInfoToDB($objInsertArray,"txt",$this->LBCPrimary_leads);
How do i get $current_id from myfile.php, when i try to access it is unavailable

Answer 1

Just below this line:
class Leads extends Common{
Add:
public $current_id = null; // create a public accessible variable
And instead of:
$current_id = $this->AddInfoToDB($objInsertArray,"txt",$this->LBCPrimary_leads);
Use:
$this->current_id = $this->AddInfoToDB($objInsertArray,"txt",$this->LBCPrimary_leads);
Now you can get it like:
$objLeads = new Leads();
echo $objLeads->current_id;
