expecting u got a classname like 'Order' soemthing like the following should work:

$class = 'Order';
$order = new $class();

U are using the namespace app/controller, so there is no need to write the namespace "controller/" in front of your variable...

that should work:

$controller = new $class(); //without "controller/"

Fatal error: Class 'Order' not found in – AMit SiNgh Aug 20 '16 at 11:22
Of Course, this will not work as long as there isnt a class, named like that :D Try it with the class you want to do it! – jiGL Aug 20 '16 at 11:27
