Iterate only through existing properties of objects, not from the parent class?

Question

I have a class that extends another.

when I repeat the current object, I get all the properties, even those from the superclass.

I only want to iterate over the current object. How can i do this?

foreach($this as $key => $value) {
    echo $key . ': ' . $value;
}

Answer 1

Very interesting question.

I highly recommend reading the examples here - http://dsl093-056-122.blt1.dsl.speakeasy.net/edu/oreilly/Oreilly_Web_Programming_bookshelf/webprog/php/ch06_05.htm , which will provide you with a deeper understanding of introspection. A link to these used methods here is http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.classobj.php

}

class B extends A {

    private $priv_b = 'private b';
}

$b = new B();

print_r(getChildrenProperties($b));

function getChildrenProperties($object) {
    $reflection = new ReflectionClass(get_class($object));
    $properties = array();

    foreach ($reflection->getProperties() as $k=>$v) {

The get_class_vars manual page provides an example of this section in the user comments section (very top).
