Bug description:magic __toArray() for objects
Description:
------------
It would be nice to have an analogous method to __toString() for arrays..
maybe __toArray() for customized array return.
Test script:
---------------
class myObject {
private $data1;
private $data2;
private $meta1;
public function __construct($data1, $data2) {
$this->data1 = $data1;
$this->data2 = $data2;
$this->meta1 = strlen($data1) + strlen($data2);
}
public function __toArray() {
return array('data1'=>$this->data1, 'data2'=>$this->data2);
}
}
$obj = new myObject('test', 'script');
var_dump($obj);
Expected result:
----------------
array('data1'=>'test', 'data2'=> 'script')
Actual result:
--------------
Not implemented
