mallen Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I came across these pieces of code and have been trying to understand this operator -> Or if it is a operator. I have searched and couldn't find explanations. In trying to learn I need to know what is is used for. Is it used only with classes? $m->myMethod(); return $this->x; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 It's called the "object operator", and allows you to access methods and properties within an object. Be careful to note the difference between a class and an object here though. I would suggest reading the manual's introduction to them: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.basic.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
