 * Guys, what am I missing?
 * I am writing a plugin, that includes something like: class.php
 * In class:
    class random_class {
 *  function unique_activate_function() {
    error_log(“this worked”) }
 * }
 * my main file:
 * $object = new random_class;
 * $object->unique_activate_function(); //works perfect!
 * register_activation_hook(__FILE__, ‘activate_random_plugin’);
 * function activate_random_plugin() {
    global $object $object->unique_activate_function();//
   FAILS }

 * If I declare the new object within the function, it works perfect.
 * But referencing it in the functions parms, or accessing it via “global” does 
   not work…
