Re: inherited method call

I know you can do a few simple things like determine if it's a
subclass and get the parent classes name, etc.

Here's where I found some info.

Maybe this will help .. maybe it won't.

GP> Hello,

GP> my question is related to just PHP not postgres, but I hope you'll be so kind to help me.
GP> So, how can I call an inherited method which is overriden in the derived class?
GP> a short exmple - if my explanation is not so clear to unterstand:

GP> class A {
GP>     var $x;
GP>     function A() { $this->x = 0; }
GP>     function f1($x) { $this->x = ++$x; }
GP> }

GP> class B extends A
GP> {
GP>     function B() {$this->x = 1; }

GP>     function f1($x)
GP>     {
GP> # now I want to access the original f1() function, ie .:
GP>         // $this->f1($x*4);
GP> # and perform some  additional operations ie.:
GP>         // $this->x *= 2;
GP>     }
GP> }

GP> Is there any possilbe work-around
GP>     or I have to duplicate the code of the inherited function,
GP>     or leave functions the same and create new functions which calls the inherited ones?
