(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0, PHP 7)
The SplObjectStorage class provides a map from objects to data or, by ignoring data, an object set. This dual purpose can be useful in many cases involving the need to uniquely identify objects.
Example #1 SplObjectStorage as a set
<?php
// As an object set
$s = new SplObjectStorage();
$o1 = new StdClass;
$o2 = new StdClass;
$o3 = new StdClass;
$s->attach($o1);
$s->attach($o2);
var_dump($s->contains($o1));
var_dump($s->contains($o2));
var_dump($s->contains($o3));
$s->detach($o2);
var_dump($s->contains($o1));
var_dump($s->contains($o2));
var_dump($s->contains($o3));
?>
Exemplul de mai sus va afișa:
bool(true) bool(true) bool(false) bool(true) bool(false) bool(false)
Example #2 SplObjectStorage as a map
<?php
// As a map from objects to data
$s = new SplObjectStorage();
$o1 = new StdClass;
$o2 = new StdClass;
$o3 = new StdClass;
$s[$o1] = "data for object 1";
$s[$o2] = array(1,2,3);
if (isset($s[$o2])) {
var_dump($s[$o2]);
}
?>
Exemplul de mai sus va afișa:
array(3) { [0]=> int(1) [1]=> int(2) [2]=> int(3) }
