Is it possible to use mysqli inside another class? I’ve already initialized it outside the class. Here is the class (User)
<?php
/*
* User Class
* Provides information about the user in an OOP fashion
* Trying to be very swish here
*/
Class User{
// User info variables
public $id;
public $email;
public $password;
public $forename;
public $surname;
function __constructor(){
if(isset($_SESSION)){
$this->getUserInfo($_SESSION);
}
}
function getUserInfo($id){
$stmt = $Database->prepare(“SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?”);
$stmt->bind_param(“s”, $id);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($id, $email, $password, $forname, $surname);
while($stmt->fetch()){
$this->id = $id;
$this->email = $email;
$this->password = $password;
$this->forename = $forename;
$this->surname = $surname;
}
}
}
However the variables are empty and using the **getUserInfo();** It says that $Database is undefined, despite being declared outside and before the User class.
