Property Setters in OOP in PHP
For writing private properties, they also create
methods called setters.
Their names usually start with the word
set. Let's create setters
for the properties:
<?php
class User {
private $name;
private $surn;
public function setName($name) {
$this->name = $name;
}
public function setSurn($surn) {
$this->surn = $surn;
}
public function getName() {
return $this->name;
}
public function getSurn() {
return $this->surn;
}
}
?>
Let's test the work of getters and setters. Let's create an object of our class:
<?php
$user = new User();
?>
Using setters, set the property values:
<?php
$user->setName('john');
$user->setSurn('smit');
?>
Using getters, output the property values:
<?php
echo $user->getName();
echo $user->getSurn();
?>
Add property setters
to your Employee class.
