method_exists
Note that before PHP 5.3.3, this function fails for private properties in base classes (which is fixed in 5.3.3)
<?php
class Base {
private $var = 1;
public function test() {
var_dump( property_exists( $this, 'var' ) );
}
}
class Derived extends Base {
}
$b = new Base();
$b->test();
$d = new Derived();
$d->test();
?>

property_exists — Bir nesne veya sınıfın belirtilen özelliğe sahip olup olmadığına bakar
Açıklama
Bu işlev, belirtilen sınıf sınıfının belirtilen
özellik özelliğine sahip olup olmadığına bakar.
Bilginize:
isset() işlevinin tersine, property_exists() işlevi, özelliğin değeri
NULLolsa bileTRUEdöndürür.
Değiştirgeler
-
sınıf -
Sınanacak sınıf veya nesne.

özellik -
Aranacak özelliğin ismi.
Dönen Değerler
Özellik mevcutsa TRUE, değilse FALSE, bir hata durumunda NULL döner.

According to my tests, isset() is 4 times faster than property_exists(), so use a combination of these functions in your programming for best performance.
For example:
<?php
$fld = 'somevar';
if (isset($this->$fld) || property_exists($this, $fld)) {
}
?>
If your programming routinely checks a larger number of property names that are expected to exist, whereas a smaller number may not, then using isset(), as above, will result in faster execution of the programming.

The above PHP4 function did not work for me. This does:
<?php
if ( !function_exists( 'property_exists' ) ) {
function property_exists( $class, $property ) {
if ( is_object( $class ) ) {
$vars = get_object_vars( $class );
} else {
$vars = get_class_vars( $class );
}
return array_key_exists( $property, $vars );
}
}
?>

To check the existance of a property from outside the scope (even if it's not accessible) try/consider the following:
<?php
function property_exists_safe($class, $prop)
{
$r = property_exists($class, $prop);
if (!$r) {
$x = new ReflectionClass($class);
$r = $x->hasProperty($prop);
}
return $r;
}
class myClass {
public $mine;
private $xpto;
static function test1() {
// true, it can be accessed from here
var_dump(property_exists('myClass', 'xpto'));
}
static function test2() {
// true, it can be accessed from everywhere!
var_dump(property_exists_safe('myClass', 'xpto'));
}
}
var_dump(property_exists('myClass', 'mine')); //true
var_dump(property_exists(new myClass, 'mine')); //true
var_dump(property_exists('myClass', 'xpto')); //false, isn't public
myClass::test1();
echo("\n");
var_dump(property_exists_safe('myClass', 'mine')); //true
var_dump(property_exists_safe(new myClass, 'mine')); //true
var_dump(property_exists_safe('myClass', 'xpto')); //true
myClass::test2(); //true
?>

A niet way to copy properties from one object to another avoiding stuff like:
$obj2 -> prop1 = $obj1 -> prop1;
$obj2 -> prop2 = $obj1 -> prop2;
$obj2 -> prop3 = $obj1 -> prop3;
...is this loop through all properties:
// copies all property values from obj1 to obj2
foreach ($obj1 as $prop_name => $prop_value)
{
if (property_exists(get_class($obj2), $prop_name))
$obj2 -> {$prop_name} = $prop_value;
}

1) Use self:: in static methods : http://php.net/language.oop5.static
2) Under the description title of this page : "This function checks if the given property exists in the specified class (and if it is ACCESSIBLE FROM THE CURRENT SCOPE)."
This is normal behaviour in PHP5.

This function is case-sensitive, so :
<?php
class Test {
public $property;
public foo() { echo($property); }
}
property_exists('Test', 'property'); // will return true
property_exists('Test', 'Property'); // will return false
?>
(under PHP5.1.2)

The documentation leaves out the important case of new properties you add to objects at run time. In fact, property_exists will return true if you ask it about such properties.
<?
class Y {}
$y = new Y;
echo isset( $y->prop ) ? "yes\n" : "no\n"; // no;
echo property_exists( 'Y', 'prop' ) ? "yes\n" : "no\n"; // no
echo property_exists( $y, 'prop' ) ? "yes\n" : "no\n"; // no
$y->prop = null;
echo isset( $y->prop ) ? "yes\n" : "no\n"; // no;
echo property_exists( 'Y', 'prop' ) ? "yes\n" : "no\n"; // no
echo property_exists( $y, 'prop' ) ? "yes\n" : "no\n"; // yes
?>

In a similar vein to the previous note, To check in PHP4 if an object has a property, even if the property is null:
<?php
if(array_key_exists('propertyName',get_object_vars($myObj)))
{
// ..the property has been defined
}
?>

I haven't tested this with the exact function semantics of 5.1, but this code should implement this function in php < 5.1:
<?php
if (!function_exists('property_exists')) {
function property_exists($class, $property) {
if (is_object($class))
$class = get_class($class);
return array_key_exists($property, get_class_vars($class));
}
}
?>
