Complex classes like Form often do a lot of different things. To break such a class down, we need to identify a cohesive component within that class. A common approach to find such a component is to look for fields/methods that share the same prefixes, or suffixes. You can also have a look at the cohesion graph to spot any un-connected, or weakly-connected components.
Once you have determined the fields that belong together, you can apply the Extract Class refactoring. If the component makes sense as a sub-class, Extract Subclass is also a candidate, and is often faster.
While breaking up the class, it is a good idea to analyze how other classes use Form, and based on these observations, apply Extract Interface, too.

Let’s assume that you have a directory layout like this:
and let’s assume the following content of
Bar.php
:If both files
OtherDir/Foo.php
andSomeDir/Foo.php
are loaded in the same runtime, you will see a PHP error such as the following:PHP Fatal error: Cannot use SomeDir\Foo as Foo because the name is already in use in OtherDir/Foo.php
However, as
OtherDir/Foo.php
does not necessarily have to be loaded and the error is only triggered if it is loaded beforeOtherDir/Bar.php
, this problem might go unnoticed for a while. In order to prevent this error from surfacing, you must import the namespace with a different alias:
