PEAR_Frontend::setFrontendClass

PEAR_Frontend::setFrontendClass() – setFrontendClass

Synopsis

require_once '/Frontend.php';

void& PEAR_Frontend::setFrontendClass ( string $uiclass )

Description

Set the kind of frontend that should be retrieved from the singleton() method. If the class does not exist, the method changes all underscores (_) into directory separators (like PEAR_Frontend_CLI to PEAR/Frontend/CLI) and appends .php and then checks to see if the file can be included. If the class does exist after all of this, a simple check is made to see if the userConfirm() method exists, and then a new frontend object is returned. Any failure causes a PEAR_Error to be returned.

Parameter

string $uiclass: the full classname (like PEAR_Frontend_Web)

Throws

throws PEAR_Error on any problem

Note

This function can not be called statically.
