PHP: is it possible to end the script as exit (), but from within the php class / object

Question

Can this be done?

$objetc -> runAndFinish(); echo "this should not be echoed"; 

instead of this?

 $objetc -> runAndFinish(); exit(); echo "this should not be echoed"; 

So runAndFinish (); the method will somehow complete the processing of the script. Is it possible?

Answer 1

Put the output (); inside your classes runAndFinish (); Method

 class someClass{ function runAndFinish(){ exit(); } } $obj = new someClass(); $obj->runAndFinish(); echo "not gonna print"; 

Answer 2

Put exit call in method and it will exit when it is called

Answer 3

Yes, of course, it is possible. It puts exit() or die() (or something else that might end up executing) in this particular method, and it will execute.

As far as I know, there are no special restrictions for what you can execute in methods against anything else.
