ArrayAccess::offsetExists

(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

ArrayAccess::offsetExistsWhether an offset exists

Descrierea

abstract public ArrayAccess::offsetExists ( mixed $offset ) : bool

Whether or not an offset exists.

This method is executed when using isset() or empty() on objects implementing ArrayAccess.

Notă:

When using empty() ArrayAccess::offsetGet() will be called and checked if empty only if ArrayAccess::offsetExists() returns true.

Parametri

offset

An offset to check for.

Valorile întoarse

Întoarce valoarea true în cazul succesului sau false în cazul eșecului.

Notă:

The return value will be casted to bool if non-boolean was returned.

Exemple

Example #1 ArrayAccess::offsetExists() example

<?php
class obj implements arrayaccess {
    public function 
offsetSet($offset$value) {
        
var_dump(__METHOD__);
    }
    public function 
offsetExists($var) {
        
var_dump(__METHOD__);
        if (
$var == "foobar") {
            return 
true;
        }
        return 
false;
    }
    public function 
offsetUnset($var) {
        
var_dump(__METHOD__);
    }
    public function 
offsetGet($var) {
        
var_dump(__METHOD__);
        return 
"value";
    }
}

$obj = new obj;

echo 
"Runs obj::offsetExists()\n";
var_dump(isset($obj["foobar"]));

echo 
"\nRuns obj::offsetExists() and obj::offsetGet()\n";
var_dump(empty($obj["foobar"]));

echo 
"\nRuns obj::offsetExists(), *not* obj:offsetGet() as there is nothing to get\n";
var_dump(empty($obj["foobaz"]));
?>

Exemplul de mai sus va afișa ceva similar cu:

Runs obj::offsetExists()
string(17) "obj::offsetExists"
bool(true)

Runs obj::offsetExists() and obj::offsetGet()
string(17) "obj::offsetExists"
string(14) "obj::offsetGet"
bool(false)

Runs obj::offsetExists(), *not* obj:offsetGet() as there is nothing to get
string(17) "obj::offsetExists"
bool(true)

Note that even though isset/empty works on classes implementing ArrayAccess, array_key_exists does not. At least not in PHP 5.3.

It seems that in PHP 7, if this method returns FALSE then offsetGet() will return NULL (in PHP 5, offsetGet() didn't first check what value offsetExists() returned).  So if your code suddenly stops working when you upgrade to PHP 7 make sure that offsetExists() returns a sensible value!

If you care about key-strictness, you may need to use an alternative solution (maybe overriding offsetExists() in subclass(es)). So, offsetExists() acts like array_key_exists() and does not handle the key types. Here;

<?php
$array
= ['one', 'two', 3.=>'boom!'];
$arrayObject = new ArrayObject($array);
$key = '3';
var_dump(array_key_exists($key, $array)); // bool(true)
var_dump(in_array($key, array_keys($array), true)); // bool(false)
var_dump($arrayObject->offsetExists($key)); // bool(true)
var_dump(in_array($key, array_keys($arrayObject->getArrayCopy()), true)); // bool(false)

// @override;
public function offsetExists($key)
{
   
// make a strict check
   
return in_array($key, array_keys($this->getArrayCopy()), true);
}
?>
