How can I use objects in foreach loop and replace variables (OOP)?












0















This code...



 foreach ($classes->fieldMappings as $fieldMapping) {
echo $fieldMapping['fieldName'];
}


... is giving me the following output:



id
username
password
email
isActive


What I want to do now is, I want to put this code...



$entity->setUsername($data['form[username]']);
$entity->setEmail($data['form[email]']);
$entity->setPassword($data['form[password]']);
$entity->setIsActive($data['form[isActive]']);


...into a loop. So I replaced it like this:



foreach ($classes->fieldMappings as $fieldMapping) { 
$entity->set'.$fieldMapping['fieldName'].'($data['form['.$fieldMapping['fieldName'].']']);
}


I get a Parse Error, but I actually don't know how to write this in the right way.

            Try to wrap your method name into curly braces, so making it like:



             $entity->{'set'.$fieldMapping['fieldName']}(...)
