PHP PDO: Do the fetch styles FETCH_CLASS and FETCH_INTO fetch into private object properties?

Question

Pretty short question, here is an example:

$prepared = $this->pdo->prepare(\"SELECT * FROM Users WHERE ID = :ID\");
$statement = $prepared->execute(         


        

Answer 1

But event with PDO::FETCH_CLASS there is a problem for private properties for subclasses. E.g.

class Animal
{
    private $color;
    public function getColor()
    {
        return $this->color;
    }
}
class Cat extends Animal
{
}

$statement->setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_CLASS, "Cat" );
$someCat = $statement->fetch();

echo $someCat->getColor();  //empty
print_r( $someCat );
/*
now have strange output like:
[color:Animal:private] => 
[color] => grey
*/

But if you set the property to protected - it works fine
