using define() inside a class constructor

I have a class [I]myclass[/I].

I would like for this class to have constants that are defined that could be accessed like: myclass->CONSTANT1

I would like the class constructor to define this constants, as it will be the constructor generating the values. Such as (pseudo):

[code=php] class testclass {

FUNCTION testclass()
{
define(‘CONSTANT1’, 1);
}
}

$myclass = new testclass();

echo ‘–>’. $myclass->CONSTANT1; //THIS VALUE IS NOT PRINTING![/code]

How can I get this to work?

Also in #PHP _↴
