ArrayIterator::offsetUnset

(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

ArrayIterator::offsetUnset — Unset value for an offset

Descrizione

public ArrayIterator::offsetUnset(mixed $key): void

Unsets a value for an offset.

If iteration is in progress, and ArrayIterator::offsetUnset() is used to unset the current index of iteration, the iteration position will be advanced to the next index. Since the iteration position is also advanced at the end of a foreach loop body, use of ArrayIterator::offsetUnset() inside a foreach loop may result in indices being skipped.

Elenco dei parametri

key: The offset to unset.

Valori restituiti

Nessun valore viene restituito.

When unsetting elements as you go it will not remove the second index of the Array being worked on. Im not sure exactly why but there is some speculations that when calling unsetOffset(); it resets the pointer aswell.

<?php

$a = new ArrayObject( range( 0,9 ) );
$b = new ArrayIterator( $a );

for ( $b->rewind(); $b->valid(); $b->next() )
{
    echo "#{$b->key()} - {$b->current()} - \r\n";
    $b->offsetUnset( $b->key() );
}

?>

To avoid this bug you can call offsetUnset in the for loop

<?php
/*** ... ***/
for ( $b->rewind(); $b->valid(); $b->offsetUnset( $b->key() ) )
{
/*** ... ***/
?>

Or unset it directly in the ArrayObject
<?php
/*** ... ***/
    $a->offsetUnset( $b->key() );
/*** ... ***/
?>

which will produce correct results

This is my solution for problem with offsetUnset
<?php

$a = new ArrayObject( range( 0,9 ) );
$b = new ArrayIterator( $a );

for ( $b->rewind(); $b->valid();  )
{
    echo "#{$b->key()} - {$b->current()} - <br>\r\n";
    if($b->key()==0 || $b->key()==1){
        $b->offsetUnset( $b->key() );
    }else {
        $b->next();
    }
}

var_dump($b);
?>

Make sure you use this function to unset a value. You can't access this iterator's values as an array. Ex:



<?php

$iterator = new \RecursiveIteratorIterator(new \RecursiveArrayIterator($arr));



foreach($iterator as $key => $value)

{

    unset($iterator[$key]); 

}

?>



Will return :



PHP Fatal error:  Cannot use object of type RecursiveIteratorIterator as array



offsetUnset works properly even when removing items from nested arrays.
