Примеры
Пример #1 class_implements() example
<?php
interface foo { }
class bar implements foo {}
print_r(class_implements(new bar));
// since PHP 5.1.0 you may also specify the parameter as a string
print_r(class_implements('bar'));
function __autoload($class_name) {
require_once $class_name . '.php';
}
// use __autoload to load the 'not_loaded' class
print_r(class_implements('not_loaded', true));
?>
Результатом выполнения данного примера будет что-то подобное:
Array ( [foo] => foo ) Array ( [interface_of_not_loaded] => interface_of_not_loaded )
Коментарии
Hint:
<?php
in_array("your-interface", class_implements($object_or_class_name));
?>
would check if 'your-interface' is ONE of the implemented interfaces.
Note that you can use something similar to be sure the class only implements that, (whyever you would want that?)
<?php
array("your-interface") == class_implements($object_or_class_name);
?>
I use the first technique to check if a module has the correct interface implemented, or else it throws an exception.
Luckily, it prints out superinterfaces as well in reverse order so iterative searching works fine:
<?php
interface InterfaceA { }
interface InterfaceB extends InterfaceA { }
class MyClass implements InterfaceB { }
print_r(class_implements(new MyClass()));
?>
prints out:
Array
(
[InterfaceB] => InterfaceB
[InterfaceA] => InterfaceA
)
Calling class_implements with a non-loadable class name or a non-object results in a warning:
<?php
// Warning: class_implements(): Class abc does not exist and could not be loaded in /home/a.panek/Projects/sauce/lib/Sauce/functions.php on line 196
$interfaces = class_implements('abc');
?>
This is not documented and should just return FALSE as the documentation above says.
