Where is the function getTotal() declared?
 

This question is related to another question of mine.
I see that the function getTotal() is used in many places including
classes/XLite/View/Minicart.php, but the only place where I found it
declared so far is classes/XLite/Module/CDev/XPaymentsConnector/Model/Order.php.

I suppose I am missing something, but where?

Re: Where is the function getTotal() declared?
 

When re-deploying, X-Cart 5.2.x auto-generates get* and set* methods for model properties. getTotal() translates to $this->total. You won't find these methods in the classes/ directory, but you will find them in the var/run/classes directory.

However, the upcoming X-Cart 5.3 won't autogenerate these methods anymore, so module authors will have to declare them manually.

Thank you very much, I went through /var/run/classes, but I couldn't find where total() was declared. It would be nice if there were a documentation in KB that deals with this kind of thing. Anyway, would anyone know where I can find the function total() is declared?

There is no function "total". "Total" is a field in table. When the object is built XC automatically creates getTotal and setTotal functions to read/write in this field.

So if you have TableA and field in it called "total"

$TableA->total;
$TableA->getTotal();
$tableA->setTotal();

all work with the field "total" from table "TableA"

Thank you very much, this is now clear.
