__construct uses the super-global variable $_SERVER which is generally not recommended.
Instead of super-globals, we recommend to explicitly inject the dependencies
of your class. This makes your code less dependent on global state and it
becomes generally more testable:
// BadclassRouter{publicfunctiongenerate($path){return$_SERVER['HOST'].$path;}}// BetterclassRouter{private$host;publicfunction__construct($host){$this->host=$host;}publicfunctiongenerate($path){return$this->host.$path;}}classController{publicfunctionmyAction(Request$request){// Instead of$page=isset($_GET['page'])?intval($_GET['page']):1;// Better (assuming you use the Symfony2 request)$page=$request->query->get('page',1);}}
It is not recommended to use PHP's closing tag ?> in files other than templates.
Using a closing tag in PHP files that only contain PHP code is not recommended
as you might accidentally add whitespace after the closing tag which would then
be output by PHP. This can cause severe problems, for example headers cannot be
sent anymore.
A simple precaution is to leave off the closing tag as it is not required, and
it also has no negative effects whatsoever.
You can fix this by adding a namespace to your class:
When choosing a vendor namespace, try to pick something that is not too generic to avoid conflicts with other libraries.
