In the PHP Constructors and Destructors documentation it states
Note: Parent constructors are not called implicitly if the child class defines a constructor. In order to run a parent constructor, a call to parent::__construct() within the child constructor is required.
But what if the child class does not call a constructor, will the parent constructor still be called? Or should we create a constructor that calls the parent constructor anyway?
IE:
class BaseClass {
function __construct() {
print "In BaseClass constructor
";
}
}
class SubClass extends BaseClass {
function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
}
}
