Class Collection

A collection is an immutable list of elements with a handful of functions to iterate, group, transform and extract information from it.

IteratorIterator implements Iterator, Traversable, OuterIterator
Extended by Cake\Collection\Collection implements Cake\Collection\CollectionInterface, Serializable uses Cake\Collection\CollectionTrait

Direct Subclasses

Method Summary

  • __construct() public
    Constructor. You can provide an array or any traversable object
  • __debugInfo() public

    Returns an array that can be used to describe the internal state of this object.

  • count() public
    Throws an exception.
  • serialize() public

    Returns a string representation of this object that can be used to reconstruct it

  • unserialize() public
    Unserializes the passed string and rebuilds the Collection instance

Method Detail

__construct()source public

__construct( array|Traversable $items )

Constructor. You can provide an array or any traversable object

Parameters

array|Traversable $items
Items.

Throws

InvalidArgumentException
If passed incorrect type for items.

Overrides

IteratorIterator::__construct()

__debugInfo()source public

__debugInfo( )

Returns an array that can be used to describe the internal state of this object.

Returns

array

count()source public

count( )

Throws an exception.

Issuing a count on a Collection can have many side effects, some making the Collection unusable after the count operation.

Throws

LogicException

serialize()source public

serialize( )

Returns a string representation of this object that can be used to reconstruct it

Returns

string

Implementation of

Serializable::serialize()

unserialize()source public

unserialize( string $collection )

Unserializes the passed string and rebuilds the Collection instance

Parameters

string $collection
The serialized collection

Implementation of

Serializable::unserialize()
