Traits

The php trait is not supported until php ver 5.4. I'm still not there yet, running: Apache

trait tDebug {
    
    // Method dumps out a lot of data about the current object:
    public function dumpObject() {
        
        // Get the class name:
        $class = get_class($this);
        
        // Get the attributes:
        $attributes = get_object_vars($this);

        // Get the methods:
        $methods = get_class_methods($this);
        
        // Print a heading:
        echo "
Information about the $class object
";
        
        // Print the attributes:
     	echo '
Attributes
';
	// CEJ mod:  If the attribute is an array - print the array
        foreach ($attributes as $k => $v) {
		if (is_array($v)) {
			echo '
key is: '.$k;
			print_r($v);
			echo '
';	
		}
		else {
			echo "
$k: $v
";
		}
        }//end foreach
        echo '
';
        
        // Print the methods:
        echo '
Methods
';
        foreach ($methods as $v) {
            echo "
$v
";
        }
        echo '
';

    } // End of dumpObject() method.
    
} // End of tDebug trait.
