Passing multidimensional object to get_string

Passing multidimensional object to get_string

Hello everyone.

global $USER;

$a->hello= "Hello";

$a->user = $USER;

$mform->addElement('static', 'element1', '', get_string('hellomsg', 'enrol_test', $a));

--

$string['some_string'] = '{$a->hello} {$a->user->firstname}';

--


Output:

Hello {$a->user->firstname}

Why I can't get the firstname ? 


Expected:

Hello firstNameHere


I try with var_dump and the $USER object is being passed correctly.


Thanks in advance!

Moodle simply doesn't support what you are trying to do.

If you want the firstname, write:

$a->firstname = $USER->firstname;

Then, in the language string, put:

{$a->firstname}
