[TYPO3-seminars] XCLASS the registrationmanager

[Malte Koitka]

  Hi Oli,

thanks for the fast response. Changing the visibility from private to 
protected was a valuable (also somekind of irritating ) hint. But 
additionally I had to edit the "getInstance" method in the original 
class file, because it always was returning the original instance. Now 
"self::$instance" gets the object of 
"ux_tx_seminars_registrationmanager()" and everything seems fine.

Do you see any way to implement that the clean way? I tried to redefine 
the static function "getInstance" in the XCLASS, but to no avail.

One additional annotation: Redefining a private method in a subclass 
worked for me some time ago, so I made a simple test.

class basis {

     private function test() {

         echo "Basistest";
     }
}

class ext extends basis {

     public function test() {

         echo "Exttest";
     }
}


$obj = new ext();
$obj->test();

It does return "Exttest", so my first thought would be that overriding 
private functions works. But with the threads problem in mind,  in some 
contexts it actually does not.
Now, my question is: Why? :)

Thanks and best regards
Malte
