PHP - Initialize object members with array parameter

问题

Is it possible to initialize an objects private or protected members in php with an associative array.

for example:

    class TestClass
{
    public $_name;
    public $_age;


    public function __construct(array $params)
    {
        ??????
    }
}


$testClass = new TestClass(
    array(
        'name'  => 'Bob',
        'age' => '29',
    )
);

i was wondering whether there is an elegant solution - perhaps by implementing one the spl interfaces or otherwise?

回答1:

You mentioned SPL. But without knowing the exact requirements for the purpose of your object, the below is about the only information I can give...

You could have your object extend the SPL built-in class ArrayIterator. Then, without concern for handling it in the constructor (already handled in the parent ArrayIterator class), you could import an array into your object simply like so:

class testClass extends ArrayIterator
{

 /* child '__construct' method not required */

 /* rest of your code here */

}

$t = new testClass(array('name' => 'asdf', 'age' => 99));

Keep in mind that with default ArrayIterator behavior, you cannot later access any of the passed array values as you would with a normal object property. You must access them as you would an array:

echo $t['name']; // 'asdf'
echo $t->name; // NULL property unknown error

And, internally, the passed array is stored within your object as a single private storage parameter. In your case, you already have all your object properties pre-defined and prepended with an underscore, so you would probably have to manually loop over $this or $params anyway in your constructor to set any real object properties.

You could of course redefine all your child object's ArrayIterator inherited methods to handle your special property naming case on get or set, but this would seem redundant and unproductive as opposed to just looping over $params/setting $this anyway in your constructor.

    public function __construct(array $params)
    {
        foreach ($params as $key => $val) {
            if (property_exists($this, "_$key")) {
                $this->{"_$key"} = $val;
            }
        }
    }

So, just looping over $params/setting $this within your constructor is probably the best, most simple solution there is.

回答2:

foreach ($params as $key=>$value)
{
 $key = '_'.$key;
 $this->$key=$value;
}
