I have in controllers folder this controller:
class Observations extends MY_Controller
{
function __construct(){
parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('Observation_model');
}
}
And in models folder I have this other code in order to make an Abstract Class.
abstract class Observation_model extends CI_Model
{
const LEAD_OBSERVATION = 0;
const CLIENT_OBSERVATION = 1;
protected $id_situacion;
protected $id_user;
}
Observation_lead_model extends Observation_model
{
public function __construct($id_situacion,$id_user){
$this->id_situacion = $id_situacion;
$this->id_user = $id_user;
}
}
class Observation_client_model extends Observation_model
{
public function __construct($id_situacion,$id_user){
$this->id_situacion = $id_situacion;
$this->id_user = $id_user;
}
}
And when I call the URL of the controller, CI returns the next error:
Fatal error: Cannot instantiate abstract class Observation_model in C:\xampp\htdocs\Projects\operarme\system\core\Loader.php
¿How could I implement abstract classess in CI? I want to make factory method pattern.
Thanks.
