ObjectStorage implements Countable, Iterator, ArrayAccess, ObjectMonitoringInterface

The storage for objects. It ensures the uniqueness of an object in the storage. It's a remake of the SplObjectStorage introduced in PHP 5.3.

Opposed to the SplObjectStorage the ObjectStorage does not implement the Serializable interface.

Interfaces

Countable
Iterator
ArrayAccess
ObjectMonitoringInterface
An interface how to monitor changes on an object and its properties. All domain objects which should be persisted need to implement the below interface.

Properties

$addedObjectsPositions  : array<string|int, mixed>
An array holding the internal position the object was added.
$isModified  : bool
A flag indication if the object storage was modified after reconstitution (eg. by adding a new object)
$positionCounter  : int
An internal var holding the count of added objects to be stored as position.
$removedObjectsPositions  : array<string|int, mixed>
An array holding the internal position the object was added before, when it would be removed from the objectstorage
$storage  : array<string|int, mixed>
An array holding the objects and the stored information. The key of the array items ist the spl_object_hash of the given object.

Methods

_isDirty()  : bool
Returns TRUE if the storage was modified after reconstitution.
_memorizeCleanState()  : mixed
Register the storage's clean state, e.g. after it has been reconstituted from the database.
addAll()  : mixed
Adds all objects-data pairs from a different storage in the current storage.
attach()  : mixed
Adds an object in the storage, and optionally associate it to some data.
contains()  : bool
Checks if the storage contains a specific object.
count()  : int
Returns the number of objects in the storage.
current()  : TEntity|null
Returns the current storage entry.
detach()  : mixed
Removes an object from the storage.
getArray()  : array<int, TEntity>
Alias of toArray which allows that method to be used from contexts which support for example dotted paths, e.g. ObjectAccess::getPropertyPath($object, 'children.array.123') to get exactly the 123rd item in the "children" property which is an ObjectStorage.
getInfo()  : mixed
Returns the data, or info, associated with the object pointed by the current iterator position.
getPosition()  : int|null
isRelationDirty()  : bool
Returns TRUE if an object is added, then removed and added at a different position
key()  : string
Returns the index at which the iterator currently is.
next()  : mixed
Moves to the next entry.
offsetExists()  : bool
Checks whether an object exists in the storage.
offsetGet()  : mixed
Returns the data associated with an object, or the object itself if an integer is passed.
offsetSet()  : mixed
Associates data to an object in the storage. offsetSet() is an alias of attach().
offsetUnset()  : mixed
Removes an object from the storage. offsetUnset() is an alias of detach().
removeAll()  : mixed
Removes objects contained in another storage from the current storage.
rewind()  : mixed
Rewinds the iterator to the first storage element.
serialize()  : mixed
Dummy method to avoid serialization.
setInfo()  : mixed
Associates data, or info, with the object currently pointed to by the iterator.
toArray()  : array<int, TEntity>
Returns this object storage as an array
unserialize()  : mixed
Dummy method to avoid unserialization.
valid()  : bool
Checks if the array pointer of the storage points to a valid position.

Properties

$addedObjectsPositions

An array holding the internal position the object was added.

protected array<string|int, mixed> $addedObjectsPositions = []

The object entry is unset when the object gets removed from the objectstorage

$isModified

A flag indication if the object storage was modified after reconstitution (eg. by adding a new object)

protected bool $isModified = false

$positionCounter

An internal var holding the count of added objects to be stored as position.

protected int $positionCounter = 0

It would be reset, when all objects will be removed from the objectstorage

$removedObjectsPositions

An array holding the internal position the object was added before, when it would be removed from the objectstorage

protected array<string|int, mixed> $removedObjectsPositions = []

$storage

An array holding the objects and the stored information. The key of the array items ist the spl_object_hash of the given object.

protected array<string|int, mixed> $storage = []

array( spl_object_hash => array( 'obj' => $object, 'inf' => $information ) )

Methods

_isDirty()

Returns TRUE if the storage was modified after reconstitution.

public _isDirty() : bool
Return values
bool

_memorizeCleanState()

Register the storage's clean state, e.g. after it has been reconstituted from the database.

public _memorizeCleanState() : mixed

addAll()

Adds all objects-data pairs from a different storage in the current storage.

public addAll(ObjectStorage<string|int, TEntity$objectStorage) : mixed
Parameters
$objectStorage : ObjectStorage<string|int, TEntity>

attach()

Adds an object in the storage, and optionally associate it to some data.

public attach(TEntity $object[, mixed $information = null ]) : mixed
Parameters
$object : TEntity

The object to add.

$information : mixed = null

The data to associate with the object.

contains()

Checks if the storage contains a specific object.

public contains(TEntity $object) : bool
Parameters
$object : TEntity

The object to look for.

Return values
bool

count()

Returns the number of objects in the storage.

public count() : int
Attributes
#[ReturnTypeWillChange]
Return values
int

The number of objects in the storage.

current()

Returns the current storage entry.

public current() : TEntity|null
Attributes
#[ReturnTypeWillChange]
Return values
TEntity|null

The object at the current iterator position.

detach()

Removes an object from the storage.

public detach(TEntity $object) : mixed
Parameters
$object : TEntity

The object to remove.

getArray()

Alias of toArray which allows that method to be used from contexts which support for example dotted paths, e.g. ObjectAccess::getPropertyPath($object, 'children.array.123') to get exactly the 123rd item in the "children" property which is an ObjectStorage.

public getArray() : array<int, TEntity>
