Methods
Get a configuration accessor for this class. Short hand for Config::inst()->get($this->class, .
An implementation of the factory method, allows you to create an instance of a class
Creates a class instance by the "singleton" design pattern.
Create an object from a string representation. It treats it as a PHP constructor without the 'new' keyword. It also manages to construct the object without the use of eval().
Parses a class-spec, such as "Versioned('Stage','Live')", as passed to create_from_string().
Similar to {@link Object::create()}, except that classes are only overloaded if you set the $strong parameter to TRUE when using {@link Object::useCustomClass()}
This class allows you to overload classes with other classes when they are constructed using the factory method {@link Object::create()}
If a class has been overloaded, get the class name it has been overloaded with - otherwise return the class name
Get the value of a static property of a class, even in that property is declared protected (but not private), without any inheritance, merging or parent lookup if it doesn't exist on the given class.
Return TRUE if a class has a specified extension.
Add an extension to a specific class.
No description
Attemps to locate and call a method dynamically added to a class at runtime if a default cannot be located
Return the names of all the methods available on this object
Check if this class is an instance of a specific class, or has that class as one of its parents
Calls a method if available on both this object and all applied {@link Extensions}, and then attempts to merge all results into an array
Run the given function on all of this object's extensions. Note that this method originally returned void, so if you wanted to return results, you're hosed
Get an extension instance attached to this object by name.
Returns TRUE if this object instance has a specific extension applied in {@link $extension_instances}. Extension instances are initialized at constructor time, meaning if you use {@link add_extension()} afterwards, the added extension will just be added to new instances of the extended class. Use the static method {@link has_extension()} to check if a class (not an instance) has a specific extension.
Get all extension instances for this specific object instance.
Cache the results of an instance method in this object to a file, or if it is already cache return the cached results
Clears the cache for the given cacheToFile call
Method that creates the login form for this authentication method
Method that creates the re-authentication form for the in-CMS view
Determine if this authenticator supports in-cms reauthentication
Get the name of the authentication method

create()
An implementation of the factory method, allows you to create an instance of a class
This method first for strong class overloads (singletons & DB interaction), then custom class overloads. If an overload is found, an instance of this is returned rather than the original class. To overload a class, use {@link Object::useCustomClass()}
This can be called in one of two ways - either calling via the class directly, or calling on Object and passing the class name as the first parameter. The following are equivalent: $list = DataList::create('SiteTree'); $list = SiteTree::get();

static SS_Object
singleton()
Creates a class instance by the "singleton" design pattern.
It will always return the same instance for this class, which can be used for performance reasons and as a simple way to access instance methods which don't rely on instance data (e.g. the custom SilverStripe static handling).
in SS_Object at line 190
static
create_from_string($classSpec, $firstArg = null)
Create an object from a string representation. It treats it as a PHP constructor without the 'new' keyword. It also manages to construct the object without the use of eval().
Construction itself is done with Object::create(), so that Object::useCustomClass() calls are respected.
Object::create_from_string("Versioned('Stage','Live')") will return the result of
Versioned::create('Stage', 'Live);
It is designed for simple, clonable objects. The first time this method is called for a given string it is cached, and clones of that object are returned.
If you pass the $firstArg argument, this will be prepended to the constructor arguments. It's impossible to pass null as the firstArg argument.
Object::create_from_string("Varchar(50)", "MyField") will return the result of
Vachar::create('MyField', '50');
Arguments are always strings, although this is a quirk of the current implementation rather than something that can be relied upon.

parse_class_spec($classSpec)

has_extension(string $classOrExtension, string $requiredExtension = null, boolean $strict = false)
Return TRUE if a class has a specified extension.
This supports backwards-compatible format (static Object::has_extension($requiredExtension)) and new format ($object->has_extension($class, $requiredExtension))
in SS_Object at line 536
static
add_extension(string $classOrExtension, string $extension = null)
Add an extension to a specific class.
The preferred method for adding extensions is through YAML config, since it avoids autoloading the class, and is easier to override in more specific configurations.
As an alternative, extensions can be added to a specific class directly in the {@link Object::$extensions} array. See {@link SiteTree::$extensions} for examples. Keep in mind that the extension will only be applied to new instances, not existing ones (including all instances created through {@link singleton()}).
in SS_Object at line 594
static
remove_extension(string $extension)
Remove an extension from a class.
Keep in mind that this won't revert any datamodel additions of the extension at runtime, unless its used before the schema building kicks in (in your _config.php). Doesn't remove the extension from any {@link Object} instances which are already created, but will have an effect on new extensions. Clears any previously created singletons through {@link singleton()} to avoid side-effects from stale extension information.

extend(string $method, mixed $a1 = null, mixed $a2 = null, mixed $a3 = null, mixed $a4 = null, mixed $a5 = null, mixed $a6 = null, mixed $a7 = null)
Run the given function on all of this object's extensions. Note that this method originally returned void, so if you wanted to return results, you're hosed
Currently returns an array, with an index resulting every time the function is called. Only adds returns if they're not NULL, to avoid bogus results from methods just defined on the parent extension. This is important for permission-checks through extend, as they use min() to determine if any of the returns is FALSE. As min() doesn't do type checking, an included NULL return would fail the permission checks.
The extension methods are defined during {@link __construct()} in {@link defineMethods()}.
