PHP namespaces trouble

Question

I just wanna use a namespace in another file, to use the class in it, but im too retarded to do this...

first file:

namespace fun;
use fun\kjr\trouble;

$trouble = new trouble('http://someURL');

second file:

namespace fun\kjr;

class trouble { ... }

This is the error i get:

Error: Fatal error: Class 'fun\kjr\trouble' not found in D:\wamp\www\fun\index.php on line 8

Where did I declare a wrong namespace? Oo

Greetings

Sry, there's alot more in it, but I think only that part is needed to find the error^^ sorry — xate

Are you using some kind of autoloading? If not, did you include the file? Autoloading isn't "auto" unless an appropriate loader is defined. — Michael Berkowski

@Xatenev Nope. The use makes the class available in the current namespace without prefixing its own namespace, but does not include/require the file. You have to do that yourself (or let your autoloader do it) — Michael Berkowski

I had to include my class aswell.

use namespace

only makes the class available in the actual context.

It does NOT include it, so you can cause it.

use

include_once('your.file')

to do that!

Thanks @Michael Berkowski for helping.

The problem (from what I can see) is you haven't specified an autoloader (e.g. with spl_autoload_register()) or haven't included the file in your code. The use statement will only find a class for you if you have an autoloader in place, otherwise you must include your code ahead of time with include/include_once or require/require once.

I would start with making an autoloader and registering it and then it may be wise to map your namespaces to directory structure as specified by PSR-0.
