    Object without class

    Hello all!

    I have a question regarding next few lines of code.

    <?php
    $person->name = "John Doe";
    $person->age = "26";
    ?>

    What does this piece of code actually do? It seems to create object $person,
    but i am not shure if i can create objects without defining class first? I'm
    little confused here :) This reminds me of structures in C...
    Thanx!

      nothing more than an empty object with variables in it, 2 in this case

      php is realy nice about auto.... (I forget the word) Basicaly, when you
      first use something, it will be created for you right then. This is one
      major differnce from a script language and a compiled one. dont get me
      wrong, you can do this in a high level language, however for really tight
      code compiling. say for a microchip, you do not want the overhead of
      auto-defining. you simple state how big a varaible is going to be, so it
      makes room for it.

          try <?php echo get_class($pers on); ?>

          It will output "stdClass" which is the pseudo-class PHP uses for
          uninitialized objects.

              CountScubula if you are the one who runs the gzentools.com site, your e-mail
              address of info@gzentools. com is bouncing, I am getting a message that says
              relaying denied. I sent you an email that bounces with this error message,
              how can I contact that site?

                  restart sendmail, it did not notice the new entry in local-host-names.

                          The term you're looking for is "autovivication ." Ok, I had to look it up in
                          my camel book.
