PHP 5 provides a way for objects to be defined so it is possible to iterate
through a list of items, with, for example a foreach statement. By default,
all visible properties will be used
for the iteration.
Beispiel 19-20. Simple Object Iteration
<?php
class MyClass
{
public $var1 = 'value 1';
public $var2 = 'value 2';
public $var3 = 'value 3';
protected $protected = 'protected var';
private $private = 'private var';
function iterateVisible() {
echo "MyClass::iterateVisible:\n";
foreach($this as $key => $value) {
print "$key => $value\n";
}
}
}
$class = new MyClass();
foreach($class as $key => $value) {
print "$key => $value\n";
}
echo "\n";
$class->iterateVisible();
?>
|
Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt folgende
Ausgabe:
var1 => value 1
var2 => value 2
var3 => value 3
MyClass::iterateVisible:
var1 => value 1
var2 => value 2
var3 => value 3
protected => protected var
private => private var
|
|
As the output shows, the foreach iterated through all
visible variables that can be
accessed. To take it a step further you can implement one
of PHP 5's internal interface named
Iterator. This allows the object to decide what and how
the object will be iterated.
Beispiel 19-21. Object Iteration implementing Iterator
<?php
class MyIterator implements Iterator
{
private $var = array();
public function __construct($array)
{
if (is_array($array)) {
$this->var = $array;
}
}
public function rewind() {
echo "rewinding\n";
reset($this->var);
}
public function current() {
$var = current($this->var);
echo "current: $var\n";
return $var;
}
public function key() {
$var = key($this->var);
echo "key: $var\n";
return $var;
}
public function next() {
$var = next($this->var);
echo "next: $var\n";
return $var;
}
public function valid() {
$var = $this->current() !== false;
echo "valid: {$var}\n";
return $var;
}
}
$values = array(1,2,3);
$it = new MyIterator($values);
foreach ($it as $a => $b) {
print "$a: $b\n";
}
?>
|
Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt folgende
Ausgabe:
rewinding
current: 1
valid: 1
current: 1
key: 0
0: 1
next: 2
current: 2
valid: 1
current: 2
key: 1
1: 2
next: 3
current: 3
valid: 1
current: 3
key: 2
2: 3
next:
current:
valid:

You can also define your class so that it doesn't have to define
all the Iterator functions by simply implementing
the PHP 5 IteratorAggregate interface.
Beispiel 19-22. Object Iteration implementing IteratorAggregate
<?php
class MyCollection implements IteratorAggregate
{
private $items = array();
private $count = 0;
// Required definition of interface IteratorAggregate
public function getIterator() {
return new MyIterator($this->items);
}
public function add($value) {
$this->items[$this->count++] = $value;
}
}
$coll = new MyCollection();
$coll->add('value 1');
$coll->add('value 2');
$coll->add('value 3');
foreach ($coll as $key => $val) {
echo "key/value: [$key -> $val]\n\n";
}
?>
|
Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt folgende
Ausgabe:
rewinding
current: value 1
valid: 1
current: value 1
key: 0
key/value: [0 -> value 1]
next: value 2
current: value 2
valid: 1
current: value 2
key: 1
key/value: [1 -> value 2]
next: value 3
current: value 3
valid: 1
current: value 3
key: 2
key/value: [2 -> value 3]
next:
current:
valid:
