This article mainly introduces the reflection mechanism of PHP. It has certain reference value. Now I share it with you. Friends in need can refer to it

PHP5 adds a new feature: Reflection. This feature allows programmers to

reverse-engineer[reverse engineering] class, interface, function, method and extension[extension library support].

Through PHP code, you can get all the information of an object and interact with it.

Assume the following Person class:

 1 class Person { 
 2     /** 
 3      * For the sake of demonstration, we"re setting this private 
 4      */ 
 5     private $_allowDynamicAttributes = false; 
 6      
 7     /** 
 8      * type=primary_autoincrement 
 9      */
 10     protected $id = 0;
 11     
 12     /**
 13      * type=varchar length=255 null
 14      */
 15     protected $name;
 16     
 17     /**
 18      * type=text null19      */
 20     protected $biography;
 21     public function getId() {
 22         return $this->id;
 23     }
 24     public function setId($v) {
 25         $this->id = $v;
 26     }
 27     public function getName() {
 28         return $this->name;
 29     }
 30     public function setName($v) {
 31         $this->name = $v;
 32     }
 33     public function getBiography() {
 34         return $this->biography;
 35     }
 36     public function setBiography($v) {
 37         $this->biography = $v;
 38     }
 39 }

Through ReflectionClass, we can get the following information of the Person class:

  • ConstantContants

  • Property Property Names

  • Method Names

  • Static PropertiesStatic Properties

  • NamespaceNamespace

  • Whether the Person class is final or abstract

Just pass the class name "Person" to ReflectionClass :

1 $class = new ReflectionClass('Person');

* Get properties (Properties):

1 $properties = $class->getProperties();2 foreach($properties as $property) {
3     echo $property->getName()."\n";4 }
5 // 输出:6 // _allowDynamicAttributes7 // id8 // name9 // biography

By default, ReflectionClass will get all properties, including private and protected ones. If you only want to get the private attribute, you need to pass an additional parameter:

1 $private_properties = $class->getProperties(ReflectionProperty::IS_PRIVATE);

Available parameter list:

  • ##ReflectionProperty::IS_STATIC

  • ReflectionProperty::IS_PUBLIC

  • ReflectionProperty::IS_PROTECTED

  • ReflectionProperty::IS_PRIVATE

If you want to get both public and private properties at the same time, just write like this: ReflectionProperty::IS_PUBLIC | ReflectionProperty::IS_PROTECTED

You can get the property name through $property->getName(), and you can get the write address through getDocComment. Property comments.

 1 foreach($properties as $property) {
 2     if($property->isProtected()) { 
 3         $docblock = $property->getDocComment(); 
 4         preg_match('/ type\=([a-z_]*) /', $property->getDocComment(), $matches); 
 5         echo $matches[1]."\n"; 
 6     } 
 7 } 
 8 // Output: 
 9 // primary_autoincrement
 10 // varchar
 11 // text
It’s a bit incredible. You can even get comments.

* Get methods: Get all methods of the class through getMethods(). What is returned is an array of ReflectionMethod objects.

No more demonstration.

* Finally, call the method in the class through ReflectionMethod.

$data = array("id" => 1, "name" => "Chris", "biography" => "I am am a PHP developer");
foreach($data as $key => $value) {    
if(!$class->hasProperty($key)) {        
throw new Exception($key." is not a valid property");
    } 
    if(!$class->hasMethod("get".ucfirst($key))) {        
    throw new Exception($key." is missing a getter");
    } 
    if(!$class->hasMethod("set".ucfirst($key))) {        
    throw new Exception($key." is missing a setter");
    } 
    // Make a new object to interact with
    $object = new Person(); 
    // Get the getter method and invoke it with the value in our data array
    $setter = $class->getMethod("set".ucfirst($key));    
    $ok = $setter->invoke($object, $value); 
    // Get the setter method and invoke it
    $setter = $class->getMethod("get".ucfirst($key));    
    $objValue = $setter->invoke($object); 
    // Now compare
    if($value == $objValue) {        
    echo "Getter or Setter has modified the data.\n";
    } else {        
    echo "Getter and Setter does not modify the data.\n";
   }
}
