How do I extract the details from a PHP object? - php

Question

I'm working with an object that returns information in a format like the following... I've removed some details where the information gets a little repetitive to save some space.
ISC_QUOTE_ITEM Object (

I need to extract details such as ID, name, etc. so that it reads 4cff5974138c9, Mac Pro, etc. respectively. How can I do that?

Answer 1

You need to call a function of that class (of which ISC_QUOTE_ITEM is an object - say MyClass ) which returns the protected variable
Edit
It can be accessed. I was correct.
Like this -
Add a function inside your class MyClass if you don't already have one.
public function getName()
{
return $this->name;
}
And then in your code you can do this:-
echo $obj->getName();
Read http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.visibility.php for details on visibility of types of variables

Answer 2

You can do this by using the reflector construct:
Example taken from http://www.php.net/manual/en/reflectionclass.getproperties.php:
<?php
class Foo {
public $foo = 1;
protected $bar = 2;
private $baz = 3;
}
$foo = new Foo();
$reflect = new ReflectionClass($foo);
$props = $reflect->getProperties(ReflectionProperty::IS_PUBLIC | ReflectionProperty::IS_PROTECTED);
foreach ($props as $prop) {
print $prop->getName() . "\n";
}
var_dump($props);
?>
As you can see also the protected $bar is returned :) And have a look at http://www.php.net/manual/en/reflectionproperty.getvalue.php#98643 there it is shown how to return the value of a protected attribute.
