Life time of a Initialized object

[lenbell]

When I create a "new object that is included in a page how long does that object remain in memory?

I can find no destroy object in the docs. In Delphi we would develop a bitchin memory leak if we didn't "dispose" of objects

Hi,

Simple: end of script.
When a PHP scripts ends, it destroys everything you created in it.
That includes objects you created and database connections, etc.

As far as I know PHP always behaves nicely when it comes to freeing
memory it used.
(At least on *nix/apache I use a lot. I had some problems with PHP5 on
IIS7 though, a dreaded 'worker thread stopped responding' popup that
seems to backtrack to PHP freeing the same memoryblocks twice. Not my
area of expertise, so I am only echo'ing what I read.)

Depending on where you instantiate a class, an object can remain in the
memory for the duration of the request,
or when invoking from command line, as long as the script remains running.

You should check this out:

Ok - I think I get it

Just to be sure

I have a php page - I guess you call them "headers" that has at the top of it an include in that include is a class and after the class i initialize the class. Can I believe that when that "header is no longer active (user went to another page) the class will be destroyed?

For all yea purists I topped this page because I was the original author.

The easiest way to destroy an object is to remove all references to it, i.e.

$myobj = new MyObject(); // Creates an object
....
$myobj = null; // or any other non-object, i.e. 1.

Once all references are removed, the PHP garbage collector will
eventually get around to releasing the memory. It may not be
immediately, but whenever the gc gets a chance to run.

As soon as a HTTP request is answered, all used resources are auto-
matically freed by default. A new page is a new HTTP request, which
means that a new script (or a new instance of the same script) is
invoked, completely independent from the previous one.

Two other things:

Please don't top-post and please don't send HTML postings, plain text is
preferred in almost every newsgroup.

it be that that is the way it should be done?

No. This is not email, this is usenet.

This is not the first time you're insulting people who have spent their
time to help you for free. You already have been warned to think about
your attitude and calm down. And no, your dyslexia is not an excuse for
the lack of social competence.
