This article brings you a detailed introduction to PHP type constraints (with code). It has certain reference value. Friends in need can refer to it. I hope it will be helpful to you.
Introduction: The so-called type constraint means that when defining a variable, its type must be specified, and the variable can only store data of this type in the future. Although PHP is a weakly typed language, it already supports type constraints in PHP 5, including objects, interfaces, and arrays. It supports scalar type constraints after PHP 7. Here are a few examples.
Scalar type, array
Specify the type in the parameter. If it is inconsistent, a catchable fatal error will be thrown
<?php /** * 数组类型约束 * @param array $arr */ function printArray(array $arr) { echo implode(',', $arr); } printArray(array(1, 2, 3));// 1,2,3 printArray('1');// Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument 1 passed to printArray() must be of the type array, string given, called in D:\WWW\test.php on line 13 and defined in D:\WWW\test.php:7 Stack trace: #0 D:\WWW\test.php(13): printArray('1') #1 {main} thrown in D:\WWW\test.php on line 7
As shown above , the same is true for scalar types
<?php /** * 标量类型约束 * @param string $name * @param int $age * @param float $height * @param bool $isBoy */ function sayInfo(string $name, int $age, float $height, bool $isBoy) { echo '姓名:' . $name . ',年龄:' . $age . ',身高:' . $height . ',是否为男孩:' . ($isBoy ? '是' : '否'); } sayInfo('tom', 12, 134.5, true);// 姓名:tom,年龄:12,身高:134.5,是否为男孩:是
Objects, interfaces
Type constraints can also be specified as objects or interfaces. First define a Human
interface, and Boy
and Girl
two classes implement the interface respectively
<?php /** * 接口 * Interface Human */ interface Human { public function say(); public function run(); } /** * 实现 Human 接口 * Class Boy */ class Boy implements Human { public function say() { echo 'a boy say'; } public function run() { echo 'a boy run'; } } /** * 实现 Human 接口 * Class Girl */ class Girl implements Human { public function say() { echo 'a girl say'; } public function run() { echo 'a girl run'; } }
Next, create a new class to test
<?php include './human.php'; class Action { /** * Boy 对象类型约束 * @param Boy $boy */ public function boySay(Boy $boy) { $boy->say(); } /** * Girl 对象类型约束 * @param Girl $girl */ public function girlSay(Girl $girl) { $girl->say(); } /** * Human 接口类型约束 * @param Human $obj */ public function humanRun(Human $obj) { $obj->run(); } } $obj = new Action(); $obj->boySay(new Boy());// a boy say echo '<br />'; $obj->girlSay(new Girl());// a girl say echo '<br />'; $obj->humanRun(new Boy());// a boy run echo '<br />'; $obj->humanRun(new Girl());// a girl run
When the type constraint is a specific object Boy
or Girl
, only the required object can be passed in. When the type constraint is interface Human
, you can pass in the class Boy
or Girl
that implements the interface.
