Will simple function names in a class structure conflict with other plugins?

Question

I implement a class structure in my plugin, for example:

class Ethans_Plugin {
    public function __construct() {
        add_filter( 'admin_init', array( $this, 'admin' ), 10, 1 );
        add_action( 'admin_footer', array( $this, 'footer' ), 10, 1 );
    }

    public function admin() {
        # code here...
    }

    public function footer() {
        # code here...
    }
}

When I define functions with generic names such as admin or footer will this conflict with any other function that have the same names? Or, since they are within a class, these function names will make them unique?

Answer 1

A method name is not callable without an instance of the class, so no, it cannot conflict with the same method names from other classes, because the class names, including the namespace, must be unique.

Btw: Never register callbacks in a constructor.

Answer 2

yes. they could conflict. Always create your namespace. What if another ethan is thinking the exact same thing as you? MIND BLOWN!
