I already have reported that. http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43713 Derick' article about this: http://derickrethans.nl/private_properties_exposed.php Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-02-19 14:09:12] jmessa@php.net Description: ------------ When using the each() function on an object that contains private or protected properties I'm getting some unusual output shown below. I was wondering whether each() should be behaving the same as foreach() does (as shown in the documentation here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.iterations.php) and not be able to access private/protected properties, or whether like the next, prev and current functions, each() should not work with objects at all (bug raised here: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43480). Reproduce code: --------------- class myClass { private $val1 = 'hello'; protected $foo = 'world'; var $bar = 'baz'; } $input = new myClass; var_dump($input); var_dump( each($input) ); var_dump( each($input) ); var_dump( each($input) ); Expected result: ---------------- array(4) { [1]=> string(3) "baz" ["value"]=> string(3) "baz" [0]=> string(3) "bar" ["key"]=> string(3) "bar" } Actual result: -------------- array(4) { [1]=> string(5) "hello" ["value"]=> string(5) "hello" [0]=> string(13) " myClass val1" ["key"]=> string(13) " myClass val1" } array(4) { [1]=> string(5) "world" ["value"]=> string(5) "world" [0]=> string(6) " * foo" ["key"]=> string(6) " * foo" } array(4) { [1]=> string(3) "baz" ["value"]=> string(3) "baz" [0]=> string(3) "bar" ["key"]=> string(3) "bar" } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44168&edit=1
