From: Operating system: All PHP version: 5.3SVN-2011-01-05 (SVN) Package: SPL related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Implementing RegexIterator::getRegex() method
Description: ------------ I'd like to see an getRegex() method in the regexIterator class that will return the regular expression that is initialized during its __construct(). Currently there is no way of retrieving that information except for saving it yourself outside the object or extending regexiterator in order to save the regex inside a custom constructor. It would be nice if the information about the object could actually be retrieved natively since this data is already present, just not visible to the outside world. Attached is a patch with an implementation. Test script: --------------- $array = array('cat', 'hat', 'sat'); $iterator = new ArrayIterator($array); $regexIterator = new RegexIterator($iterator, '/.at/'); var_dump($regexIterator->getRegex()); Expected result: ---------------- string(5) "/.at/" Actual result: -------------- PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method ArrayIterator::getRegex() -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53659&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53659&r=mysqlcfg
