Example #1 ArrayAccess::offsetExists() example

`<?php
class obj implements arrayaccess {
public function offsetSet($offset, $value) {
var_dump(__METHOD__);
}
public function offsetExists($var) {
var_dump(__METHOD__);
if ($var == "foobar") {
return true;
}
return false;
}
public function offsetUnset($var) {
var_dump(__METHOD__);
}
public function offsetGet($var) {
var_dump(__METHOD__);
return "value";
}
}
$obj = new obj;
echo "Runs obj::offsetExists()\n";
var_dump(isset($obj["foobar"]));
echo "\nRuns obj::offsetExists() and obj::offsetGet()\n";
var_dump(empty($obj["foobar"]));
echo "\nRuns obj::offsetExists(), *not* obj:offsetGet() as there is nothing to get\n";
var_dump(empty($obj["foobaz"]));
?>`

Exemplul de mai sus va afișa ceva similar cu:

    Runs obj::offsetExists()
    string(17) "obj::offsetExists"
    bool(true)

    Runs obj::offsetExists() and obj::offsetGet()
    string(17) "obj::offsetExists"
    string(14) "obj::offsetGet"
    bool(false)

    Runs obj::offsetExists(), *not* obj:offsetGet() as there is nothing to get
    string(17) "obj::offsetExists"
    bool(true)
