Hi everyone,

How is parenting functions in PHP done properly according to the following example? Can I make sure that my array isn't overwritten and the previous values inside array lost, on each addArray call?

function arraybase() {
    $this->array = new ArrayObject();

    return $this;
}

function addArray($value) {
     parent::$this->arraybase();

    $this->array->append($value);
    return $this;

}


$this->addArray('1')->addArray('2')->addArray('3'); 

// outputs:
Array
(
    [0] => 3
)

Thanks a lot!
