arrays containing class types

[mungflesh]

I am new to PHP. Can I define an array in PHP 4.3 containing class
types?

ie. (simplified example)

class MyType
{
function MyFunc()
{
$newType = new MyType;
this->$array_MyType[] = $newType;
}
}

I am getting an error "Cannot use [] for reading"

Thanks

I would check the syntax for "this", if I were you...

yeah sorry - i wrote that off the cuff. the syntax in my script does
contain $this. i'm a C++ dev by proffession and there's no $s tagged
onto variables.

OK, but have you also removed the "$" in front of array_MyType? i.e.:

$this->array_MyType[] = $newType;

It should be

$this->array_MyType = array();
$this->array_MyType[] = $newtype;

(Assuming $array_MyType is a class variable)
