note 109374 added to function.array-walk

further to paul at heliosville dot com and a correction of memandeemail at gmail dot com Inside a class you can array walk a method, by supplying $this and the name of the method, as an array for the second argument. <?php class test { public function my_function(&$data) { $data=1; } public function clean_data($data) { array_walk($data, array($this, "my_function")); return $data; } } $a=new test(); $a->clean_data($my_array); ?> NOTE: to reference the current method, you can use __FUNCTION__ instead of the literal name. But avoid __METHOD__ as this will also include the name of the class (ie test::my_function), which is not required for instantiated classes like this. <?php class test { public function objectToArray(&$data) { if(is_object($data)) { $data=get_object_vars($data); } if(is_array($data)) { array_walk($data, array(&$this, __FUNCTION__)); } } } $a=new test(); $a->objectToArray($my_object); ?> ---- Server IP: 94.76.225.145 Probable Submitter: 81.144.235.82 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-walk.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/109374 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109374/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109374/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109374/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109374/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109374/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109374/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109374 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/109374 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
