note 117567 added to class.arrayaccess

reset() method may not work as you expect with ArrayAccess objects. Using reset($myArrayAccessObject) returns the first property from $myArrayAccessObject, not the first item in the items array. If you want to use the reset() method to return the first array item, then you can use the following simple workaround: <?php class MyArrayAccessObject implements Iterator, ArrayAccess, Countable { protected $first = null; //WARNING! Keep this always first. protected $items = null; private function supportReset() { $this->first = reset($this->items); //Support reset(). } // ... public function offsetSet($offset, $value) { if ($offset === null) { $this->items[] = $value; } else { $this->items[$offset] = $value; } $this->supportReset(); } } ?> Finally, call $this->supportReset() in the end of all methods that change the internal $items array, such as in offsetSet(), offsetUnset() etc. This way, you can use the reset() method as normally: <?php $firstArrayItem = reset($myArrayAccessObject); ?> ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 88.86.155.34 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/class.arrayaccess.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/117567 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117567/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117567/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117567/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117567/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117567/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117567/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117567 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/117567 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
