My Validation Base Class

I was asked how I deal with validation / create and update validation rulesets. Well here is one method I have used. Don't be afraid to build on top of what the framework has already given you. In my projects I use a base class for almost anything. You never know when you want your classes to inherit some common functionality. My BaseValidator actually has some pretty useful methods and properties in it.

<?php

namespace FooProject\Internal\Validators;

use FooProject\Internal\Sanitizers\BaseSanitizer;

PHP Engineer Interview: What you should know

PHP Developer Interview: What you should know

1. What’s the difference between " self " and " this " ?

Use $this to refer to the current object. Use self to refer to the current class. In other words, use $this->member for non-static members, use self::$member for static members.
