1.2.1264. Unfinished Object

Some of the properties are not assigned a value before or at constructor time. Then, they might be called when one of the other public method is called, and yield a fatal error.

<?php

class x {
    private $p;
    private $p2;

    function __construct($p) {
        $this->p = $p;
        // $p2 is not assigned
    }

    function foo() {
        $this->p->goo();
        // This is not valid
        $this->p2->goo();
    }
}

?>
