Calling a function that is inside a class from other class

Question

Lets suppose I have a PHP file file1.php. Something like this:

<?php
class sqlClass {
public function one { //do something }
?>

Then in other PHP file file2.php, I have this:

<?php 
class encryption_class {
public function two { //do something }
}

How can I call the function two which is inside the class encryption_class inside the file2.php from the function one on the file1.php class sqlClass?

You would have to instantiate the encryption_class within the sqlClass. Or create a static method or use a singleton pattern. — Lix

Like this:

<?php

require_once "file2.php"; 

class sqlClass {
    public function one {
        //do something

        $encript = new encryption_class();
        $encript->two(); 

    }
}

First include file2 in file1

include_once "file2.php";

Then create object and call.

$a = new encryption_class ();
$a->two();
