Classes’ Reference

This chapter contains elaborate information in one article on all Portalsuite object classes, which are sorted in alphabetical order. Each article starts with a descrition of the general function and way of use of each class. Afterwards all data elements of the underlying SQL data base and element functions are described.

On the use of the classes’ reference

If you are looking for information on a certain class of Portalsuite objects, please note that each object may have inherited many functions and properties from its ancestors. Within the articles we decribe the new as well as the overwritten properties and functions, only.

Let’s assume, you want to inform yourself on the object PContentProduct and the function Field. At first you look up in the article on PContentProduct and recognize that the function Field is missing. PContentProduct is a descendant of PContentArticle. If you look up there, you will find the function Field. PContentProduct has inherited this function from PContentArticle. Other functions may origin from from even more distant ancestors.

In order to ease keeping an overview on the inheritance tree and the parentage, we placed a link to the ancestor at the beginning of each article.

9 classes:


PContent

Provides an abstract base class for all objects, which represent contents like articles or media files from the media archive. >> MORE


PGroup

PGroup offers a general fundament for implementing a data and object container. PGroup is an abstract class, providing functions, which allow to add, to delete and to filter entries as well as to sort them by criteria. Moreover, repeat and loop functions are provided, with which you can access single or pre-selected elements comfortably. The basic concept of PGroup is much more flexible than the concepts of arrays or simple lists are. Furthermore PGroup builds the basis for specialized object types like, for instance, PGroupCategory or PGroupIndexkeywords. This object is derived from > PObject. >> MORE


PMail

Provides a class for sending HTML and text e-mails with attachments. >> MORE


PObject

PObject is the initial point of the class hierarchy of the Portalsuite objects. As the very origin, i. e., base element, PObject has no ancestors, but many descendants. All classes of the Portalsuite objects library are derived from PObject. >> MORE


PPOP3 (Enterprise and higher)

Provides a class for querying and accessing POP3 e-mail accounts and the contained e-mails. Farther miscellaneous functions for decoding contained e-mails and attachments are provided. >> MORE


PRegistry

Maps an entry in the global Portalsuite configuration-registry data base. This object is derived from PObject. >> MORE


PStylesheet

The class PStylesheet maps a style sheet. This object is derived from > PView > PObject. >> MORE


PTemplate

The class PTemplate maps templates. This object is derived from > PView > PObject. >> MORE


PView

PView defines the abstract base class for all view-objects. This object is derived from > PObject. >> MORE
