パターン
Regarding __toString:
<?php
class my_tag_A{
public $id='';
public $href='';
public $target='';
public $class='';
public $label='';
function __construct($href, $label){
$this->href = $href;
$this->label = $label;
}
public function __toString(){
return '<a '.$this->nz_arr(array('id', 'href', 'target', 'class')). ' >' . $this->label . '</a>';
}
function nz_arr($attrib_arr){
$s = '';
foreach($attrib_arr as $attrib){
$s .= $this->nz($attrib);
}
return $s;
}
/**
* Print the tag attribute if it is not blank, such as id="$this->id"
* @param string $attrib
* @return string
*/
function nz($attrib){
$s = '';
if($this->$attrib != '') $s = $attrib .' = "' . $this->$attrib . '"';
return $s;
}
//This causes RECURSION because of parsing between double quotes. This is a very UNEXPECTED behaviour!
function nz_($attrib){
$s = '';
if($this->$attrib != '') $s = "$attrib = \"$this->$attrib\"";
return $s;
}
}//end class
//usage
$a = new my_tag_A('abc.php', 'ABC'); $a->target = '_blank';
echo $a;
//prints:
// <a href="abc.php" target="_blank" >ABC</a>
?>
マジックメソッド
以下の関数名 __construct, __destruct (コンストラクタとデストラクタ参照), __call, __callStatic, __get, __set, __isset, __unset (オーバーローディング参照), __sleep, __wakeup, __toString, __set_state および __clone は、PHP クラスにおける特殊関数の名前です。 これらの関数に関連する特別な機能を使用する場合を除き、 クラス内にこれらの名前を有する関数を作成してはいけません。
警告
PHP は、__ で始まる関数名を特殊関数として予約しています。 文書化された特殊な機能を必要とする場合を除き、 __ で始まる関数名を使用しないことが推奨されます。
__sleep と __wakeup
serialize() は、クラスに特殊な名前 __sleep の関数があるかどうかを調べます。 もしあれば、シリアル化の前にその関数を実行します。 この関数で、オブジェクトをクリアすることができます。 またこの関数は、シリアル化するオブジェクトについて、 すべての変数の名前を配列で返すことが前提となっています。 このメソッドが何も返さなかった場合は、NULL がシリアル化され、E_NOTICE が発生します。
典型的な __sleep の使用法は、 途中のデータをコミットしたり、 似たようなタスクのクリアを行うといったものです。 また、オブジェクトが非常に大きく、かつ、完全に保存する必要がない場合、 この関数が有用です。
逆に、unserialize() は、 特殊な名前 __wakeup を有する 関数の存在を調べます。 もし存在する場合、この関数は、オブジェクトが有する可能性が あるあらゆるリソースを再構築することができます。
意図される __wakeup の使用法は、 シリアル化の際に失われたデータベース接続を再度確立したり、 その他の再初期化を行うことです。
例1 Sleep および wakeup
<?php
class Connection {
protected $link;
private $server, $username, $password, $db;
public function __construct($server, $username, $password, $db)
{
$this->server = $server;
$this->username = $username;
$this->password = $password;
$this->db = $db;
$this->connect();
}
private function connect()
{
$this->link = mysql_connect($this->server, $this->username, $this->password);
mysql_select_db($this->db, $this->link);
}
public function __sleep()
{
return array('server', 'username', 'password', 'db');
}
public function __wakeup()
{
$this->connect();
}
}
?>
__toString
__toString メソッドにより、 クラスが文字列に変換される際の動作を決めることができます。
例2 簡単な例
<?php
// 簡単なクラスを宣言
class TestClass
{
public $foo;
public function __construct($foo) {
$this->foo = $foo;
}
public function __toString() {
return $this->foo;
}
}
$class = new TestClass('Hello');
echo $class;
?>
上の例の出力は以下となります。
Hello
注意が必要なのは、PHP 5.2.0 より前では、 __toString メソッドは echo() または print(). と直接結合された場合のみコールされていたということです。 PHP 5.2.0 以降では、これはすべての文字列コンテキスト (たとえば printf() における %s 修飾子) でコールされます。しかし、その他の型のコンテキスト (たとえば %d 修飾子) ではコールされません。 PHP 5.2.0 以降では、__toString メソッドを持っていないオブジェクトを文字列に変換しようとすると E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR が発生します。
__set_state
この static メソッドは、 PHP 5.1.0 以降で var_export() によって エクスポートされたクラスのためにコールされます。
このメソッドの唯一のパラメータは、エクスポートされたプロパティを array('property' => value, ...) の形式で保持する配列です。
例3 __set_state の使用法 (PHP 5.1.0 以降)
<?php
class A
{
public $var1;
public $var2;
public static function __set_state($an_array) // PHP 5.1.0 以降
{
$obj = new A;
$obj->var1 = $an_array['var1'];
$obj->var2 = $an_array['var2'];
return $obj;
}
}
$a = new A;
$a->var1 = 5;
$a->var2 = 'foo';
eval('$b = ' . var_export($a, true) . ';'); // $b = A::__set_state(array(
// 'var1' => 5,
// 'var2' => 'foo',
// ));
var_dump($b);
?>
上の例の出力は以下となります。
object(A)#2 (2) { ["var1"]=> int(5) ["var2"]=> string(3) "foo" }

Be very careful to define __set_state() in classes which inherit from a parent using it, as the static __set_state() call will be called for any children. If you are not careful, you will end up with an object of the wrong type. Here is an example:
<?php
class A
{
public $var1;
public static function __set_state($an_array)
{
$obj = new A;
$obj->var1 = $an_array['var1'];
return $obj;
}
}
class B extends A {
}
$b = new B;
$b->var1 = 5;
eval('$new_b = ' . var_export($b, true) . ';');
var_dump($new_b);
/*
object(A)#2 (1) {
["var1"]=>
int(5)
}
*/

The __toString() method is extremely useful for converting class attribute names and values into common string representations of data (of which there are many choices). I mention this as previous references to __toString() refer only to debugging uses.
I have previously used the __toString() method in the following ways:
- representing a data-holding object as:
- XML
- raw POST data
- a GET query string
- header name:value pairs
- representing a custom mail object as an actual email (headers then body, all correctly represented)
When creating a class, consider what possible standard string representations are available and, of those, which would be the most relevant with respect to the purpose of the class.
Being able to represent data-holding objects in standardised string forms makes it much easier for your internal representations of data to be shared in an interoperable way with other applications.

To be helpful, the __toString() method should return the class name and the state of all its properties inside square brackets.
<?php
class Point {
protected $x, $y;
public function __construct($xVal = 0, $yVal = 0) {
$this->x = $xVal;
$this->y = $yVal;
}
public function __toString() { // the function we're interested in...
return "Point[x=$this->x, y=$this->y]";
}
}
$point1 = new Point(10, 10);
$point2 = new Point(50, 50);
echo $point1 . '<br>';
echo $point2 . '<br><br>';
?>
Point[x=10, y=10]
Point[x=50, y=50]
Classes that include objects, should call that objects __toString() method.
<?php
class Line {
protected $start, $end;
public function __construct(Point $p1, Point $p2){
$this->start = $p1;
$this->end = $p2;
}
public function __toString() { // the function we're interested in...
return 'Line[start=' . $this->start->__toString() . // call __toString()
', end=' . $this->end->__toString() . ']'; // call __toString()
}
}
echo (new Line($point1, $point2));
?>
Line[start=Point[x=10, y=10], end=Point[x=50, y=50]]

A note: __wakeup occurs before saving the unserialization of an session object.
Therefore, $_SESSION['var']::__wakeup() setting $_SESSION['var'] = new Class() will fail and $_SESSION['var'] will remain unchanged.
This means that if you have a pseudo-temporary object that contains a class to auto revert to, you have to revert that session object in the initialization of the website rather than via a __wakeup() script.

Serializing objects is problematic with references. This is solved redefining the __sleep() magic method. This is also problematic when parent class has private variables since the parent object is not accessible nor its private variables from within the child object.
I found a solution that seems working for classes that implements this __sleep() method, and for its subclasses. Without more work in subclasses. The inheritance system does the trick.
Recursively __sleep() call parent' __sleep() and return the whole array of variables of the object instance to be serialized.
<?php
class foo {
}
class a {
private $var1;
function __construct(foo &$obj = NULL) {
$this->var1 = &$obj;
}
/** Return its variables array, if its parent exists and the __sleep method is accessible, call it and push the result into the array and return the whole thing. */
public function __sleep() {
$a = array_keys(get_object_vars(&$this));
if (method_exists(parent, '__sleep')) {
$p = parent::__sleep();
array_push($a, $p);
};
return $a;
}
}
class b extends a {
function __construct(foo &$obj = NULL) {
parent::__construct($obj);
}
}
session_start();
$myfoo = &new foo();
$myb = &new b($myfoo);
$myb = unserialize(serialize(&$myb));
?>
This should work, I haven't tested deeper.

Maybe we can using unserialize() & __wakeup() instead "new" when creating a new instance of class.
Consider following codes:
class foo
{
static public $WAKEUP_STR = 'O:3:"foo":0:{}';
public function foo(){}
public function bar(){}
}
$foo = unserialize(foo::$WAKEUP_STR);

Remember that setters and getters (__set, __get) will work in your class as long as you NOT SET the property with given name.
If you still want to have the public property definition in the class source code (phpDocumentor, editor code completition, or any other reason) when using these magic methods, simply unset() your public properties inside the constructor.
__set/__get function will be called and code reader will see at first sight, which public properties are available.
Example:
<?php
class user {
/**
* @var int Gets and sets the user ID
*/
public $UserID;
private $_userID;
public function __construct() {
// All the magic is in single line:
// We unset public property, so our setters and getters
// are used and phpDoc and editors with code completition are happy
unset($this->UserID);
}
public function __set($key, $value) {
// assign value for key UserID to _userID property
}
public function __get($key) {
// return value of _userID for UserID property
}
}

The above hint for using array_keys((array)$obj) got me investigating how to get __sleep to really work with object hierarchies.
With PHP 5.2.3, If you want to serialize an object that is part of an object hierarchy and you want to selectively serialize members (public, private, and protected) by manually specifying the array of members, there are a few simple rules for naming members that you must follow:
1. public members should be named using just their member name, like so:
<?php
class Foo {
public $bar;
public function __sleep() {
return array("bar");
}
}
?>
2. protected members should be named using "\0" . "*" . "\0" . member name, like so:
<?php
class Foo {
protected $bar;
public function __sleep() {
return array("\0*\0bar");
}
}
?>
3. private members should be named using "\0" . class name . "\0" . member name, like so:
<?php
class Foo {
private $bar;
public function __sleep() {
return array("\0Foo\0bar");
}
}
?>
So with this information let us serialize a class hierarchy correctly:
<?php
class Base {
private $foo = "foo_value";
protected $bar = "bar_value";
public function __sleep() {
return array("\0Base\0foo", "\0*\0bar");
}
}
class Derived extends Base {
public $baz = "baz_value";
private $boo = "boo_value";
public function __sleep() {
// we have to merge our members with our parent's
return array_merge(array("baz", "\0Derived\0boo"), parent::__sleep());
}
}
class Leaf extends Derived {
private $qux = "qux_value";
protected $zaz = "zaz_value";
public $blah = "blah_value";
public function __sleep() {
// again, merge our members with our parent's
return array_merge(array("\0Leaf\0qux", "\0*\0zaz", "blah"), parent::__sleep());
}
}
// test it
$test = new Leaf();
$s = serialize($test);
$test2 = unserialize($s);
echo $s;
print_r($test);
print_r($test2);
?>
Now if you comment out all of the __sleep() functions and output the serialized string, you will see that the output doesn't change. The most important part of course is that with the proper __sleep() functions, we can unserialize the string and get a properly set up object.
I hope this solves the mystery for everybody. __sleep() does work, if you use it correctly :-)

Until __sleep is "fixed" (here's hoping), a function that will return ALL members of a given object -- public, protected, AND private:
<?php
public function getPropertyNames(array $filter = NULL)
{
$rc = new ReflectionObject($this);
$names = array();
while ($rc instanceof ReflectionClass)
{
foreach ($rc->getProperties() as $prop)
{
if (!$filter || !in_array($prop->getName(), $filter))
$names[] = $prop->getName();
}
$rc = $rc->getParentClass();
}
return $names;
}
?>

Another small thing that is important to note about __sleep() and privte member variables:
<?php
class A
{
private $a;
public function __construct()
{
$this->a = 1;
}
}
class B extends A
{
protected $b;
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->b = 2;
}
function __sleep()
{
return array('a', 'b');
}
}
serialize(new B);
?>
result:
Notice: serialize(): "a" returned as member variable from __sleep() but does not exist in ...
To summerize: in a given class hierarchy in which parent classes contain private member variables, those variables are serialized when __sleep() is not defined. However, once __sleep() is defined, there is no way to make those private member variables serialized as well. From that point on, serialization is performed from the visibility scope of the subclass.
It is particularly important to note this little quirk when designing base classes that their derivables may be serialized, or when subclassing an external library class.

Referering my previus note: there was an error in the code. But i find a better way:
<?
session_start();
class Classes{
private $name;
private $statics;
function __construct($name){
$this->name=$name;
$this->statics=array();
}
function setStatic($k,$v){
if(!is_resource($v))
$this->statics[$k]=$v;
}
function __wakeup(){
foreach($this->statics as $k=>$v)
eval($this->name."::\$".$k."=\$this->statics['".$k."'];");
}
}
function storeStaticAttributes(){
$classes=get_declared_classes();
foreach($classes as $name){
$reflect=new ReflectionClass($name);
if($reflect->isUserDefined()){
$statics=$reflect->getStaticProperties();
if(empty($_SESSION["_classes"]))
$_SESSION["_classes"]=array();
if(empty($_SESSION["_classes"][$name]))
$_SESSION["_classes"][$name]=new Classes($name);
foreach($statics as $k=>$v)
$_SESSION["_classes"][$name]->setStatic($k,$v);
}
}
}

There is no need to use eval() to mimic mixins (i.e., multiple inheritance) within PHP 5. You only need to:
<?php
class MyClass
{
private $_obj = null;
public function __construct($obj)
{
$this->_obj = $obj;
}
public function __call($method, $args)
{
if (!method_exists($this->_obj, $method)) {
throw new Exception("unknown method [$method]");
}
return call_user_func_array(
array($this->_obj, $method),
$args
);
}
}
?>
You could just as easily add an addMixin() method that would allow you to add multiple objects to an array, and then iterate over that array until you found the right method. As noted, these are referred to as a Mixins in other languages.

Maybe not really new and all in all definitely not the best solution,but if you cant extend a class (if your class alreay extends an abstract or other things like that) you can 'fake' a extend.
<?php
class MyClass
extends SomeAbstractUnknownClass {
private $classObject;
public function __construct ( classObject $classToExtend ) {
$this->classObject = $classToExtend;
}
public function __call($func, $var) {
if ( !count($var) ) {
return $this->classObject->$func($var);
} else {
$str = '';
$values = array_values($var);
for ( $i=0; $i<count($values); $i++ ) {
$str .= "'".$values[$i]."' ,";
}
$str = substr($str, 0, -2);
return eval('return $this->classObject->'.$func.'('.$str.');');
}
}
}
?>
So if you'll do a $myClass->unknownMethod() and it is found neither in MyClass nor in SomeAbstractUnknownClass, MyClass will try to call this method in $classObject.
I use this for 'extending' a UserObject-Class which already extends an other one.
Better solutions are always welcome ;)

Since PHP 5.2.0, you'll always get an error like this:
"Object of class foo could not be converted to string"
When one tries to use an object as string, for instance:
class Test{}
echo new Test();
Thus, one way to avoid this problem is to programme the magic method __toString.
However, in the older versions, it would output a string saying that it was an object together a unique obj id. Therefore, the __toString() method must comply with this behaviour.
My suggestion:
class Test{
function __toString(){
if(!isset($this->__uniqid))
$this->__uniqid = md5(uniqid(rand(), true));
return(get_class($this)."@".$this->__uniqid);
}
}
echo new Test();
would output something like this:

$myclass->foo['bar'] = 'baz';
When overriding __get and __set, the above code can work (as expected) but it depends on your __get implementation rather than your __set. In fact, __set is never called with the above code. It appears that PHP (at least as of 5.1) uses a reference to whatever was returned by __get. To be more verbose, the above code is essentially identical to:
$tmp_array = &$myclass->foo;
$tmp_array['bar'] = 'baz';
unset($tmp_array);
Therefore, the above won't do anything if your __get implementation resembles this:
function __get($name) {
return array_key_exists($name, $this->values)
? $this->values[$name] : null;
}
You will actually need to set the value in __get and return that, as in the following code:
function __get($name) {
if (!array_key_exists($name, $this->values))
$this->values[$name] = null;
return $this->values[$name];
}

I've just come accross something interesting relating to storing PHP5 objects in a session. If you don't provide an __autoload(), then you MUST load the class definition before calling session_start(). I guess that when you call session_start(), any objects in the session are unserialized then and there and placed into $_SESSION. If you don't provide the class definition before calling session_start(), your object will get the class __PHP_Incomplete_Class, and you won't be able to use it for anything.
Examples:
<?php
session_start();
require_once 'MyClass.php';
$obj = new MyClass;
$_SESSION['obj'] = $obj;
?>
Works fine. Then on a subsequent page load:
<?php
session_start();
require_once 'MyClass.php';
$_SESSION['obj']->callSomeMethod();
?>
Fatal error: The script tried to execute a method or access a property of an incomplete object. Please ensure that the class definition "MyClass" of the object you are trying to operate on was loaded _before_ unserialize() gets called or provide a __autoload() function to load the class definition.
But if you do this instead, it works fine:
<?php
require_once 'MyClass.php';
session_start();
$_SESSION['obj']->callSomeMethod();
?>
Hopefully in some future release of PHP, __PHP_Incomplete_Class will be smart enough to check for a class definition at time of use (method call or property operation), and, if the class exists, magically "complete" itself and turn into the desired object.

If you use the Magical Method '__set()', be shure that the call of
<?php
$myobject->test['myarray'] = 'data';
?>
will not appear!
For that u have to do it the fine way if you want to use __set Method ;)
<?php
$myobject->test = array('myarray' => 'data');
?>
If a Variable is already set, the __set Magic Method already wont appear!
My first solution was to use a Caller Class.
With that, i ever knew which Module i currently use!
But who needs it... :]
There are quiet better solutions for this...
Here's the Code:

if (is_object($this->caller) && function_exists('call_user_func_array'))
$return = call_user_func_array(array(&$this->caller, $funcname), $args);
else
trigger_error("Call to Function with call_user_func_array failed", E_USER_ERROR);
$this->unsetModuleInformation();
return $return;
}
function __construct($callerClassName = false, $callerModuleName = 'Webboard') {
if ($callerClassName == false)
trigger_error('No Classname', E_USER_ERROR);
$this->module = $callerModuleName;
if (class_exists($callerClassName))
$this->caller = new $callerClassName();
else
trigger_error('Class not exists: \''.$callerClassName.'\'', E_USER_ERROR);
if (is_object($this->caller))
{
$this->setModuleInformation();
if (method_exists($this->caller, '__init'))
$this->caller->__init();
$this->unsetModuleInformation();
}
else
trigger_error('Caller is no object!', E_USER_ERROR);
}
function __destruct() {
$this->setModuleInformation();
if (method_exists($this->caller, '__deinit'))
$this->caller->__deinit();
$this->unsetModuleInformation();
}
function __isset($isset) {
$this->setModuleInformation();
if (is_object($this->caller))
$return = isset($this->caller->{$isset});
else
trigger_error('Caller is no object!', E_USER_ERROR);
$this->unsetModuleInformation();
return $return;
}
function __unset($unset) {
$this->setModuleInformation();

if (isset($this->caller->{$unset}))
unset($this->caller->{$unset});
}
else
trigger_error('Caller is no object!', E_USER_ERROR);
$this->unsetModuleInformation();
}
function __set($set, $val) {
$this->setModuleInformation();
if (is_object($this->caller))

To copy base part of derived class appropriate method in base should be defined. E.g.:
class A {
public function setAVar( $oAVar) { $this->oAVar = $oAVar; }
public function getAVar() { return $this->oAVar; }
public function copyA( &$roDest) {
if( $roDest instanceof A)
$this->oAVar = $roDest->oAVar;
}
private $oAVar;
}
class B extends A {
public function setBVar( $oBVar) { $this->oBVar = $oBVar; }
public function getBVar() { return $this->oBVar; }
private $oBVar;
}
$oA = new A();
$oB = new B();
$oA->setAVar( 4);
$oB->setAVar( 5);
$oB->setBVar( 6);
echo "oA::oAVar " . $oA->getAVar() . "<br>";
echo "oB::oAVar " . $oB->getAVar() . "<br>";
echo "oB::oBVar " . $oB->getBVar() . "<br>";
echo "<br>";
$oB->copyA( $oA);
echo "oA::oAVar " . $oA->getAVar() . "<br>";
echo "oB::oAVar " . $oB->getAVar() . "<br>";
echo "oB::oBVar " . $oB->getBVar() . "<br>";
Output:
oA::oAVar 4
oB::oAVar 5
oB::oBVar 6
oA::oAVar 4
oB::oAVar 4
oB::oBVar 6

The sequence of events regarding __sleep and __destruct is unusual __ as __destruct is called before __sleep. The following code snippet:
<?php
$sequence = 0;
class foo {
public $stuff;
public function __construct($param) {
global $sequence;
echo "Seq: ", $sequence++, " - constructor\n";
$this->stuff = $param;
}
public function __destruct() {
global $sequence;
echo "Seq: ", $sequence++, " - destructor\n";
}
public function __sleep() {
global $sequence;
echo "Seq: ", $sequence++, " - __sleep\n";
return array("stuff");
}
public function __wakeup() {
global $sequence;
echo "Seq: ", $sequence++, " - __wakeup\n";
}
}
session_start();
$_SESSION["obj"] = new foo("A foo");
?>
yields the output:
Seq: 0 - constructor
Seq: 1 - destructor
Seq: 2 - __sleep
Only when you end your script with a call to session_write_close() as in:
<?php
$sequence = 0;
class foo {
public $stuff;
public function __construct($param) {
global $sequence;
echo "Seq: ", $sequence++, " - constructor\n";
$this->stuff = $param;
}
public function __destruct() {
global $sequence;
echo "Seq: ", $sequence++, " - destructor\n";
}
public function __sleep() {
global $sequence;
echo "Seq: ", $sequence++, " - __sleep\n";
return array("stuff");
}
public function __wakeup() {
global $sequence;
echo "Seq: ", $sequence++, " - __wakeup\n";
}
}
session_start();
$_SESSION["obj"] = new foo("A foo");
session_write_close();
?>
the sequence is as common sense would expect it to be as the following output shows:
Seq: 0 - constructor
Seq: 1 - __sleep
Seq: 2 - destructor

about __sleep and _wakeup, consider using a method like this:
class core
{
var $sub_core; //ref of subcore
var $_sleep_subcore; // place where serialize version of sub_core will be stored
function core(){
$this->sub_core = new sub_core();
return true;
}
function __wakeup()
{
// on wakeup of core, core unserializes sub_core
// wich it had stored when it was serialized itself
$this->sub_core = unserialize($this->_sleep_subcore);
return true;
}
function __sleep()
{
// sub_core will be serialized when core is serialized.
// the serialized subcore will be stored as a string inside core.
$this->_sleep_subcore = serialize($this->sub_core);
$return_arr[] = "_sleep_subcore";
return $return_arr;
}
}
class sub_core
{
var $info;
function sub_core()
{
$this->info["somedata"] = "somedata overhere"
}
function __wakeup()
{
return true;
}
function __sleep()
{
$return_arr[] = "info"
return $return_arr;
}
}
this way subcore is being serialized by core when core is being serialized. subcore handles its own data and core stores it as a serialize string inside itself. on wakeup core unserializes subcore.
this may have a performance cost, but if you have many objects connected this way this is the best way of serializing them. you only need to serialize the the main object wich will serialize all those below which will serialize all those below them again. in effect causing a sort of chainreaction in wich each object takes care of its own info.
offcoarse you always need to store the eventualy serialized string in a safe place. somebody got experience with this way of __wakeup and __sleep.
works in PHP4&5

When you use sessions, its very important to keep the sessiondata small, due to low performance with unserialize. Every class shoud extend from this class. The result will be, that no null Values are written to the sessiondata. It will increase performance.
<?
class BaseObject
{
function __sleep()
{
$vars = (array)$this;
foreach ($vars as $key => $val)
{
if (is_null($val))
{
unset($vars[$key]);
}
}
return array_keys($vars);
}
};
?>

Intriguing what happens when __sleep() and __wakeup() and sessions() are mixed. I had a hunch that, as session data is serialized, __sleep would be called when an object, or whatever, is stored in _SESSION. true. The same hunch applied when session_start() was called. Would __wakeup() be called? True. Very helpful, specifically as I'm building massive objects (well, lots of simple objects stored in sessions), and need lots of automated tasks (potentially) reloaded at "wakeup" time. (for instance, restarting a database session/connection).

In reply to krisj1010 at gmail.com below:
__sleep() handles protected/private properties very well. You should never rely on get_class_vars() to retrieve property names since this function only returns the public properties. Use the Reflection API instead for that purpose. Better yet, if you know which ones you want to save it is always faster to specify the return array manually.

This small sentence tripped me up for a half an hour:
"It is worth noting that the __toString method will only be called when it is directly combined with echo() or print()."
So code like this will _not_ work, even though you might think it would:
<?
//$x is some variable with a __toString method defined.
$y = "x's value is: " . $x;
$y = "x's value is: " . (string)$x;
?>
In _em_ both situations, $y will contain "x's value is: Object id #42" (or whatever object ID). So, the only recourse I guess is this:
<?
$y = "x's value is: " . $x->__toString();
?>

The default toString output is very useful for visual debuggin
because it shows the object id.
There is no function to resolve the id directly(?), but you
can do this:
<?php
function __toString()
{
sscanf((string)$this,
