note 118824 added to class.mongodb-driver-cursor

As one might notice, this class does not implement a hasNext() or next() method as opposed to the now deprecated Mongo driver. If, for any reason, you need to pull data from the cursor procedurally or otherwise need to override the behavior of foreach while iterating on the cursor, the SPL \IteratorIterator class can be used. When doing so, it is important to rewind the iterator before using it, otherwise you won't get any data back. <?php $cursor = $collection->find(); $it = new \IteratorIterator($cursor); $it->rewind(); // Very important while($doc = $it->current()) { var_dump($doc); $it->next(); } ?> I used this trick to build a backward compatibility wrapper emulating the old Mongo driver in order to upgrade an older codebase. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 70.49.215.47 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/class.mongodb-driver-cursor.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/118824 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118824/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118824/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118824/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118824/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118824/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118824/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118824 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/118824 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
