I want to use a trait in a class, only if a condition is satisfied. For example:
trait T
{
}
class A
{
if ($condition) {
use T;
}
}
I know I can't use if
directly in class. So, I'm looking for a way to use traits conditionally similar to the above. Is it possible?
You can create a class with use T which extends the class without use T. And then in your code where you use the class do an if and instantiate the one or the other class.
<?php
trait T {
}
class A {
}
class B extends A {
use T;
}
// In an other part of code
$obj = null;
if($condition) {
$obj = new B();
} else {
$obj = new A();
}
