Re: php5 iterate an object

Henrik Gemal wrote:

I have an object that looks like this: Test Object

the class Test must implement 'Iterator' e.g. class Test implements Iterator {

    /*
     * Iterator methods
     */
    public function rewind(){}
    public function current(){}
    public function valid(){}
    public function next(){}
    public function key(){}
    public function count(){}

} you'll have to fill in the body of those methods yourself! once you have done that yuou will be able to do something like: $t = new Test(); foreach($t as $key => $value) { echo $key,' - ',$value,"\n"; }

        (
            [config] => TestConfig Object
                (
                    [file:protected] => test.conf
                    [kill:protected] => 1
                )

            [location:private] => "test"

} I'm trying to write an PHP5 iterator that can iterate over an object but I'm not sure how. The manual for PHP5 iterators seems to only work with arrays. How do I iterate over an object and only get the name of the attribute ("config") and not the entire name ("Test::config")

I'd question what you are trying to do; it sounds liek an Iterator is not the right tool for the job.
