Executing with non-xf PHP

[silence]

I'm creating a callback to execute some stuff (executing stuff via this)

How can I go about doing this in a callback since everything I try gives me errors (calling statically, etc)

How are you attempting to run that code within your callback?

Calling it statically, but that doesn't work since it's not a static class. If I define that specific code as a static class the $this objects won't work so I have no idea what to do.

Create a static class that creates an instance of the above class and uses it accordingly?

Would I cache it like any other xf model? Is there an example in XF's code that showcases this?

 

[Jeremy]

Quick glance looks like it happens on certain events, so realistically shouldn't need cached.

<?php

class myCallback {
  public static function callback() {
    // do its work here. initalize, etc.
  }
}

What about the $this objects then in the php script since everything is now static functions?

 

[Jeremy]

Why are you changing the actual class to static? You'll have to create a new instance of said class within the PHP:

<?php

class MyCallBack {
    public static function callback() {
        $CServerRcon = new CServerRcon('pass', 'port', 'third argument');
        $CServerRcon->sendCommand('command');
    }
}

You won't change CServerRcon at all. If you wanted it all self contained you could do:

<?php
class CServerRcon {
  // current class

  public static function callback() {
    $self = new self();
  }
}

(self may not work in that instance, but I think it will).

One more: how would I call that class then? (since just CServerRcon would be locally called and i rather have that bulky script in a separate file)

 

[Jeremy]

What do you mean how would you call that class? You have to set the callback to be MyCallBack::callback() (for my example), and then require the CServerRcon file and initialize and use it as any other normal class.

Oh so literally include/require the file in that callback?

 

[Jeremy]

Yes.

 

[silence]

Yes.

Alright thanks mate! Sorry about the silly questions!

Weird issue in that script:
fwrite() expects parameter 1 to be resource, null given

Why wouldn't it be writing to the global variable even though it's set to do so?

 

[Jeremy]

The socket isn't being created and/or stored correctly.
