SplObjectStorage::current
Detaching the current entry from the storage prevents SplObjectStorage::next() to operate.
Example as a PHPUnit-test:
<?php
public function testDetachingCurrentPreventsNext()
{
$storage = new SplObjectStorage;
$storage->attach(new stdClass);
$storage->attach(new stdClass);
$storage->rewind();
$iterated = 0;
$expected = $storage->count();
while ($storage->valid()) {
$iterated++;
$storage->detach($storage->current());
$storage->next();
}
$this->assertEquals($expected, $iterated);
}
?>
This test will fail, for the iteration will never reach the second stdClass.
SplObjectStorage::next() obviously relies on the current element to be valid.
If you want to detach objects during iterations, you should dereference objects, before you call next() and detach the reference after next():
<?php
public function testDetachingReferenceAfterNext()
{
$storage = new SplObjectStorage;
$storage->attach(new stdClass);
$storage->attach(new stdClass);
$storage->rewind();
$iterated = 0;
$expected = $storage->count();
while ($storage->valid()) {
$iterated++;
$object = $storage->current();
$storage->next();
$storage->detach($object);
}
$this->assertEquals($expected, $iterated);
}
?>
This test will pass.
SplObjectStorage::detach
(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0)
SplObjectStorage::detach — Removes an object from the storage
Description
public void SplObjectStorage::detach
( object
$object
)Removes the object from the storage.
Return Values
No value is returned.
Examples
Example #1 SplObjectStorage::detach() example
<?php
$o = new StdClass;
$s = new SplObjectStorage();
$s->attach($o);
var_dump(count($s));
$s->detach($o);
var_dump(count($s));
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
int(1) int(0)
