Duplicate code is one of the most pungent code smells. A rule that is often used is to re-structure code once it is duplicated in three or more places.
Common duplication problems, and corresponding solutions are:
| 1 | <?php |
||
| 8 | class HttpAuth extends Object implements IAuth { |
||
|
|
|||
| 9 | |||
| 10 | public static function authenticate($email, $password) { |
||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | /** |
||
| 18 | * @param Member $user |
||
| 19 | * @return ApiSession |
||
| 20 | */ |
||
| 21 | View Code Duplication | public static function createSession($user) { |
|
| 33 | |||
| 34 | View Code Duplication | public static function delete($request) { |
|
| 42 | |||
| 43 | |||
| 44 | /** |
||
| 45 | * @param SS_HTTPRequest $request |
||
| 46 | * @return Member |
||
| 47 | */ |
||
| 48 | public static function current($request) { |
||
| 52 | |||
| 53 | /** |
||
| 54 | * @return Member |
||
| 55 | */ |
||
| 56 | protected static function getBasicAuthMember(){ |
||
| 63 | |||
| 64 | } |
||
| 65 |
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.
