Hello everyone,
I am building a custom PHP Extension. It is object based, and while the
documentation seems to be lacking a little on this aspect in extensions, I
haven't let that slow me down. I have used other extensions as examples, and
done a great deal of searching around to find everything I have needed until
now.
I currently have the following http://pastebin.com/m74c98b43 ( the
start method ) in my classes __construct ( I actually use PHP_MALIAS to
alias __construct to the function ) .. This works perfect. It creates a
array in the object, just as I expect it to.
I can even print out the number of elements and their values in the
debug function by passing $Obj->Property to it
The problem I am having is that I can't seem to figure out a way to
append values on to the ZVal Array in another PHP_METHOD(). I have tried
combinations of zend_hash_find() && zend_hash_update() to no avail. Is
there anyone that might be able to point me in the right direction as to how
to do this?
i think mainly you just need to read the zval from the instance, operate on
it, then update the instance. heres some working code from the extension
ive been working on,
/* {{{ proto public void MacroCommand::addSubCommand(string commandClassRef)
add a subcommand to this MacroCommand */
PHP_METHOD(MacroCommand, addSubCommand)
{
zval *this, *subCommands, *subCommand;
char *rawSubCommand;
int rawSubCommandLength;
if( zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "s",
&rawSubCommand, &rawSubCommandLength) == FAILURE) {
RETURN_NULL();
}
MAKE_STD_ZVAL(subCommand);
ZVAL_STRINGL(subCommand, rawSubCommand, rawSubCommandLength, 1);
this = getThis();
zend_class_entry *this_ce = zend_get_class_entry(this);
subCommands = zend_read_property(puremvc_macrocommand_ce, this,
"subCommands",
sizeof("subCommands")-1, 1 TSRMLS_CC);
ZVAL_ADDREF(subCommand);
add_next_index_zval(subCommands, subCommand);
zend_update_property(puremvc_macrocommand_ce, this, "subCommands",
sizeof("subCommands")-1,
subCommands TSRMLS_CC);
}
/* }}} */
and heres my unit test for this method,
--TEST--
MacroCommand::addSubCommand(), ensure addSubCommand actually stores the
ICommand in an internal array
--SKIPIF--
<?php if (!extension_loaded("pure_mvc")) print "skip"; ?>
--FILE--
<?php
class SubCommand {}
class MyMacroCommand extends MacroCommand {
protected function initializeMacroCommand() {
$this->addSubCommand('SubCommand');
}
}
$macroCmd = new MyMacroCommand();
var_dump($macroCmd);
?>
--EXPECT--
object(MyMacroCommand)#1 (2) {
["facade:protected"]=>
string(0) ""
["subCommands:private"]=>
array(1) {
[0]=>
string(10) "SubCommand"
}
}
hope this helps,
