Access to local variables in child object

[thyon]

I thought this would work. I'm making a child of EventReader where I want to call the reader to do the normal template setup and parse the event template, upon returning to the child, I will modify the template object further and re-parse it.

Is this even possible, or will I have to copy all the code over:

	protected function compile()
	{
		global $objPage, $objTemplate; // wanted to define it global so that I can have access to it upon parent return

		parent::compile(); // here the $objTemplate is created with a = new Template();
		
		$objTemplate->hasMore = true; // generates a error, stdObject created

Otherwise, I'll just have to copy the entire class and modify and not make it a child.

can you link (on github) the original source code you wish to "extend"?

what do you want to accomplish exactly?

no worries. I just copied the event reader code into a new module.
