class_implements

(PHP 5)

class_implements Return the interfaces which are implemented by the given class

Descripción

array class_implements ( mixed $class [, bool $autoload ] )

This function returns an array with the names of the interfaces that the given class and its parents implement.

Lista de parámetros

class

An object (class instance) or a string (class name).

autoload

Whether to allow this function to load the class automatically through the __autoload magic method. Defaults to TRUE.

Valores retornados

An array on success, or FALSE on error.

Registro de cambios

Versión Descripción
5.1.0 Added the option to pass the class parameter as a string. Added the autoload parameter.

Ejemplos

Example #1 class_implements() example

<?php

interface foo { }
class 
bar implements foo {}

print_r(class_implements(new bar));

// since PHP 5.1.0 you may also specify the parameter as a string
print_r(class_implements('bar'));


function 
__autoload($class_name) {
   require_once 
$class_name '.php';
}

// use __autoload to load the 'not_loaded' class
print_r(class_implements('not_loaded'true));

?>

El resultado del ejemplo seria algo similar a:

Array
(
    [foo] => foo
)

Array
(
    [interface_of_not_loaded] => interface_of_not_loaded
)

You can use Reflection class instead:

<?php

$r
= new ReflectionClass($class);
foreach(
$r->getInterfaces() as $in)
{
 
$in->getName();
}

Luckily, it prints out superinterfaces as well in reverse order so iterative searching works fine:

    <?php
   
   
interface InterfaceA { }
   
    interface
InterfaceB extends InterfaceA { }
   
    class
MyClass implements InterfaceB { }
   
   
print_r(class_implements(new MyClass()));
   
   
?>

prints out:

    Array
    (
        [InterfaceB] => InterfaceB
        [InterfaceA] => InterfaceA
    )

Hint:
<?php
in_array
("your-interface", class_implements($object_or_class_name));
?>
would check if 'your-interface' is ONE of the implemented interfaces.
Note that you can use something similar to be sure the class only implements that, (whyever you would want that?)
<?php
array("your-interface") == class_implements($object_or_class_name);
?>

I use the first technique to check if a module has the correct interface implemented, or else it throws an exception.
