get_declared_classes

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)

get_declared_classes선언된 클래스명을 배열로 반환

설명

array get_declared_classes ( void )

선언된 클래스를 얻습니다.

반환값

현재 스크립트에서 선언된 클래스명을 배열로 반환한다.

Note:

PHP 4.0.1에서는 배열의 첫부분에 세개의 클래스들이 들어가 있다: stdClass (Zend/zend.c에 정의되어있는 클래스), OverloadedTestClass (ext/standard/basic_functions.c에 정의되어있는 클래스), Directory (ext/standard/dir.c에 정의되어있는 클래스)

PHP에 컴파일되거나 적재된 확장이 추가적인 클래스를 가질 수 있는 점에 주의하십시오. 이말의 의미는 그 이름을 사용하는 사용자 선언 클래스를 선언할수 없다는 것이다. 부록의 기선언된 클래스 섹션에서 미리선언된 클래스명 이 있다.

예제

Example #1 get_declared_classes() 예제

위 예제의 출력 예시:

Array
(
    [0] => stdClass
    [1] => __PHP_Incomplete_Class
    [2] => Directory
)

Regarding note of 3-21:

<?php

class myclass {}

$class = 'myclass';
$instance = new $class();

?>

This function could also be used to determine the names of classes defined in a particular file by calling it before and after include. It's hardly a pointless function.

The array returned by this function will be in the order the classes were defined / included / required and this order does not appear to change.

For example:

<?PHP

//define classone
class classone { }

//define classtwo
class classtwo { }

//This will show X classes (built-ins, extensions etc) with
//classone and classtwo as the last two elements

print_r(get_declared_classes());

//define classthree
class classthree { }

//...and four
class classfour { }

//Shows the same result as before with class three and four appended
print_r(get_declared_classes());

?>

Output:

Array
(
   [0] => stdClass
   [1] .... other defined classes....
   [10] => classone
   [11] => classtwo
)

and...

Array
(
   [0] => stdClass
   [1] .... other defined classes....
   [10] => classone
   [11] => classtwo
   [12] => classthree
   [13] => classfour
)

Note that this function also counts enums.

<?php

enum Bla
{
    case
Foo;
}

var_dump(get_declared_classes());
?>

Result:
array(116) {
    ...
    [115]=> string(3) "Bla"
}

Summary:
* in PHP 5.1 class names have case preserved
* contrary, in PHP 4.4 class names are downcased, withe exception of a few build-in ones

The get_declared_classes() funcition returns the list of names with case preserved, as of PHP 5.1 series (prolly 5.0 too, but i have no way to test it right now). Since PHP generally is caseless in regard to names of classes, this may come at a surprise. Also, this could potentially break older code asssuming downcased list.

Take extra care when  checking for existence of a class. Following example is, potentially, error prone: <?php in_array( $className, $classget_declared_classes() ) ?>

A sure-fire (while slower) way would be to iterate over the array and normalize case to, say, lower:

<?php
$exists
= FALSE;
$className = strtolower( $className );
foreach (
get_declared_classes() as $c ) {
    if (
$className === strtolower( $c ) ) {
       
$exists = TRUE;
        break;
    }
}
?>

Optimization of the above snippet is left as a simple excercise to the reader ;)

get-declared-classes makes no sense at all, if u maybe, later for production, merge class files in one package file.

lets say: package.php
print_r(get_declared_classes());
class declaredHere { }
print_r(get_declared_classes());

so in this case, the declaredHerr class is defined at the first call of print_r();
because PHP-complier runs a hole file and declare Stuff before running the code.

But (Lovely PHP):
print_r(get_declared_classes());
if(true){
class declaredHere { }
}
print_r(get_declared_classes());
Will print the declaredHere class only in the second print_r.

Its not a Bug it a...

you cannot remove them. they are "defined", which happens when the class is being loaded from the parser. you just deleted an instance of a class.

classes can't be unloaded. probably not very practical to implement that in a future version. I wouldn't go out of my way to do it if I were zend. you're better off finding a workaround. it's better programming technique to find a way around having to do that anyway.

This function considers only classes and subclasses. Not subsubclasses.

In fact I have code that provides an abstract class and then classes using this abstract class. Further I have subclasses to my concrete classes - which is why my subclasses are not listed within the returned array.

In PHP5, you don't get declared interfaces by calling this function!!!
To get interfaces you should use get_declared_interfaces(). However, to check if an interface is already defined, you should use class_exists()! This is strange, but PHP team does not think so.

those above comments are too old.
now, whatever the order is, the output will be the same:

<?php
class Test1
{}

print_r(get_declared_classes());

class
Test2
{}

print_r(get_declared_classes());

?>

will output the same result.
