How can I make the model class a variable, with Propel?

Suppose I have code like this:



    $c = new Criteria(); 

    $c->add(WssOracleUserCoursePeer::USER_ID, $userid);

    $c->add(WssOracleUserCoursePeer::COURSE_ID, $courseId);

    $userCourse = WssOracleUserCoursePeer::doSelectOne($c); 

    if ($userCourse->getStatus() == "C") {

      return false;

    }


Now I want to change WssOracleUserCoursePeer to a variable that changes depending on circumstance. Simply doing this gives parse errors:



    $c = new Criteria(); 

    $c->add($model::USER_ID, $userid);

    $c->add($model::COURSE_ID, $courseId);

    $userCourse = $model::doSelectOne($c); 

    if ($userCourse->getStatus() == "C") {

      return false;

    }


and this also fails:



    $c = new Criteria(); 

    $c->add({$model}::USER_ID, $userid);

    $c->add({$model}::COURSE_ID, $courseId);

    $userCourse = {$model}::doSelectOne($c); 

    if ($userCourse->getStatus() == "C") {

      return false;

    }



So how do I do this?

    Hi, you can try : 

     
    
    $c = new Criteria(); 
    

    
    $c->add(constant($model . '::USER_ID'), $userid);
    
    $c->add(constant($model . '::COURSE_ID'), $courseId);
    
    $userCourse = call_user_func(array($model, 'doSelectOne'), $c); 
    
    if ($userCourse->getStatus() == "C") {
    
      return false;
    
    }

    That is fixed on PHP 5.3.

    Try using the function constant($model.'::USER_ID'); in prior versions.

    Francesco Tassi says:

    it's not really propel related but php related:

    you can get constant value using

    constant($model.'::COURSE_ID');


    and call the doSelectXXX methods using (not sure if both work)

    
call_user_func($model.'::doSelectOne', $c);
    
call_user_func(array($method, 'doSelectOne'), $c);

    Try this:


    
    $oCriteria = new Criteria(); 
    
    
    
    $oCriteria->add(constant($model . '::USER_ID'), $userid);
    

    
    $oCriteria->add(constant($model . '::COURSE_ID'), $courseId);
    

    
    $userCourse = call_user_func(array($model, 'doSelectOne'), $oCriteria); 
    

    
    if ($userCourse->getStatus() == "C") {
    

    
      return false;
    

    
    }
