I am trying to create a registry class with magic __set and __get my class looks like class Registry { private $vars = array(); public function __set($key, $value) { $this->vars[$key] = $value; dump($key, $value); } public function __get($index) { $this->vars[$index]; } } but if i try to save some variable in registry class in gets only the $key the $value is alway NULL. here is the sample code how I am try to call this class $registry = new registry; $registry->router = $router; $registry->title = "Welcome ";
