(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
Interface to provide accessing objects as arrays.
Example #1 Basic usage
<?phpclass Obj implements ArrayAccess { public $container = [ "one" => 1, "two" => 2, "three" => 3, ]; public function offsetSet($offset, $value): void { if (is_null($offset)) { $this->container[] = $value; } else { $this->container[$offset] = $value; } } public function offsetExists($offset): bool { return isset($this->container[$offset]); } public function offsetUnset($offset): void { unset($this->container[$offset]); } public function offsetGet($offset): mixed { return isset($this->container[$offset]) ? $this->container[$offset] : null; }}$obj = new Obj;var_dump(isset($obj["two"]));var_dump($obj["two"]);unset($obj["two"]);var_dump(isset($obj["two"]));$obj["two"] = "A value";var_dump($obj["two"]);$obj[] = 'Append 1';$obj[] = 'Append 2';$obj[] = 'Append 3';print_r($obj);?>
The above example will output something similar to:
bool(true) int(2) bool(false) string(7) "A value" obj Object ( [container:obj:private] => Array ( [one] => 1 [three] => 3 [two] => A value [0] => Append 1 [1] => Append 2 [2] => Append 3 ) )
