Class name referencing - how to

[basz]

Example of how to generate stuff like so...

ClassName::SOME_CONSTANT = ...

all I seem to manage is

'ClassName::SOME_CONSTANT' = ...

I would like to know how to do this and when I do I will add it as example to the documentation.

How are you currently trying it?

I gave up because I couldn't find a solution... back to str_replace and heredocs

$classGenerator    = new \Zend\Code\Generator\ClassGenerator();
$propertyGenerator = new \Zend\Code\Generator\PropertyGenerator();
$value             = new \Zend\Code\Generator\ValueGenerator();
$value->setValue('ClassName::SOME_CONSTANT');
$value->setType(\Zend\Code\Generator\ValueGenerator::TYPE_CONSTANT);
$propertyGenerator->setName("foo");
$propertyGenerator->setDefaultValue($value->generate());

$classGenerator->addPropertyFromGenerator($propertyGenerator);

print $classGenerator->generate();

class 
{

    public $foo = 'ClassName::SOME_CONSTANT';

}

That's not a value, but an expression. AFAIK, that doesn't really work with the value generator.

Plus I'm fairly sure that most default value expressions were overhauled in 5.6 :-\

PropertyGenerator::setDefaultValue expects a PropertyValueGenerator instance. In your code I changed line 3 from ValueGenerator to PropertyValueGenerator:

$classGenerator    = new \Zend\Code\Generator\ClassGenerator();
$propertyGenerator = new \Zend\Code\Generator\PropertyGenerator();
$value             = new \Zend\Code\Generator\PropertyValueGenerator();
$value->setType(\Zend\Code\Generator\ValueGenerator::TYPE_CONSTANT);
$value->setValue('ClassName::SOME_CONSTANT');
$propertyGenerator->setName("foo");
$propertyGenerator->setDefaultValue($value);

$classGenerator->addPropertyFromGenerator($propertyGenerator);

print $classGenerator->generate();

Result:

class 
{

    public $foo = ClassName::SOME_CONSTANT;

}

@adamlundrigan neat! Closing here then!
