method_exists — 检查类的方法是否存在
$object
, string $method_name
)
检查类的方法是否存在于指定的 object
中。
object
对象示例或者类名。
method_name
方法名。
如果 method_name
所指的方法在 object
所指的对象类中已定义,则返回 TRUE
,否则返回 FALSE
。
Note:
如果此类不是已知类,使用此函数会使用任何已注册的 autoloader。
Example #1 method_exists() 例子
<?php
$directory = new Directory ( '.' );
var_dump ( method_exists ( $directory , 'read' ));
?>
以上例程会输出:
bool(true)
Example #2 Static method_exists() 例子
<?php
var_dump ( method_exists ( 'Directory' , 'read' ));
?>
以上例程会输出:
bool(true)

A couple of the older comments (specifically "jp at function dot fi" and "spam at majiclab dot com") state that is_callable() does not respect a methods visibility when checked outside of that class. ie. That private/protected methods are seen as callable when tested publicly. However, this was a bug (#29210) in early versions of PHP 5 and was fixed (according to the changelog) in PHP 5.0.5 (and/or PHP 5.1.0).

I was wondering if caching the the methods in an array would have a faster lookup. So I ran a very simple benchmark using xdebug_time_index() with 10000 iterations on each statement.
using PHP 5.3.13 btw
<?php
// using an actual instance of an object shows 0.10398316383362 secs
method_exist($object, $method);
?>
<?php
// using a string shows 0.12779307365417 secs
method_exist('ClassName', $method);
?>
<?php
$array = array();
// shows 0.10288906097412 secs
in_array($method, $array);
?>
<?php
$assoc = array( );
// shows 0.017536878585815 secs
isset( $assoc[$method] );
?>
From the looks of the results, there is very little difference in method_exist and in_array. Isset seems to the fastest and using a string as the first parameter is the slowest.
Please note that the test was done on multiple methods, not just one, the code presented above is to show the results, not the actual test code that ran. Also, this was tested just out of curiosity and I didn't set up a specific environment or used any profiling tools, and it was not meant to be an official benchmark in anyway.

Note that prepending the namespace (if any) is required even if the calling class is in the same namespace:
<?php
namespace test;
class foo {
public function lookup() {
// will return false
return method_exists('bar', 'nonsense_method');
}
}
class bar {
public function nonsense_method() {
// will return true
return method_exists('test\foo', 'lookup');
}
}
?>

Just to mention it: both method_exists() and is_callable() return true for inherited methods:
<?php
class ParentClass {
function doParent() { }
}
class ChildClass extends ParentClass { }
$p = new ParentClass();
$c = new ChildClass();
// all return true
var_dump(method_exists($p, 'doParent'));
var_dump(method_exists($c, 'doParent'));
var_dump(is_callable(array($p, 'doParent')));
var_dump(is_callable(array($c, 'doParent')));
?>

Using method_exists inside an object's __call() method can be very usefull if you want to avoid to get a fatal error because of a limit in function nesting or if you are calling methods that dont exist but need to continue in your application:
<?php
class Something
{
public function __call($method, $args)
{
if(method_exists($this, $method)) {
return call_user_func_array(array($this, $method), $args);
}else{
throw new Exception(sprintf('The required method "%s" does not exist for %s', $method, get_class($this)));
}
}
}
?>
[#6] phoenix at todofixthis dot com [2010-12-21 09:13:51]
As noted [elsewhere] method_exists() does not care about the existence of __call(), whereas is_callable() does:
<?php
class Test {
public function explicit( ) {
// ...
}
public function __call( $meth, $args ) {
// ...
}
}
$Tester = new Test();
var_export(method_exists($Tester, 'anything')); // false
var_export(is_callable(array($Tester, 'anything'))); // true
?>
[#7] uramihsayibok, gmail, com [2010-08-06 22:09:16]
It wasn't spelled out but could be inferred: method_exists() also works on interfaces.
<?php
var_dump(method_exists("Iterator", "current"));
// bool(true)
?>
[#8] Anonymous [2010-05-08 05:20:43]
If you want to check in a class itself if a method is known you may do so with magic variable __CLASS__
<?php
class A{
__construct($method){
return method_exists(__CLASS__,$method);
}
private function foo(){
}
}
$test = new A('foo');
//should return true
?>
You might also use the method describe below with
<?php in_array() ?>
trick but I consider this one here easier and more readable and well, the way it is intended toi be done ;)

Hi,
Here is a useful function that you can use to check classes methods access e.g whether it is public, private or static or both..
here it goes:
<?php
// Example class
class myClass {
private $private1;
static $static1;
public $public1;
public function publ() {
}
private function priv() {
}
private static function privstatic() {
}
public static function publstatic() {
}
static function mytest() {
}
}
// The function uses the reflection class that is built into PHP!!!
// The purpose is to determine the type of a certain method that exi
function is_class_method($type="public", $method, $class) {
// $type = mb_strtolower($type);
$refl = new ReflectionMethod($class, $method);
switch($type) {
case "static":
return $refl->isStatic();
break;
case "public":
return $refl->isPublic();
break;
case "private":
return $refl->isPrivate();
break;
}
}
var_dump(is_class_method("static", "privstatic", "myClass")); // true - the method is private and also static..
var_dump(is_class_method("private", "privstatic", "myClass")); // true - the method is private and also static..
var_dump(is_class_method("private", "publstatic", "myClass")); // False the methos is public and also static not private
// you get the idea.. I hope this helps someone..
?>

This function is case-insensitive (as is PHP) and here is the proof:
<?php
class A {
public function FUNC() { echo '*****'; }
}
$a = new A();
$a->func(); // *****
var_dump(method_exists($a, 'func')); // bool(true)
?>

As mentioned before, is_callable and method_exists report all methods callable even if they are private/protected and thus actually not callable. So instead of those functions you may use following work-around which reports methods as supposed to.
<?php
class Foo1 {
public function bar() {
echo "I'm private Foo1::bar()";
}
}
class Foo2 {
private function bar() {
echo "I'm public Foo2::bar()";
}
}
$f1=new Foo1;
$f2=new Foo2;
if(is_callable(array($f1,"bar"))) {
echo "Foo1::bar() is callable";
} else {
echo "Foo1::bar() isn't callable";
}
if(is_callable(array($f2,"bar"))) {
echo "Foo2::bar() is callable";
} else {
echo "Foo2::bar() isn't callable";
}
if(in_array("bar",get_class_methods($f1))) {
echo "Foo1::bar() is callable";
} else {
echo "Foo1::bar() isn't callable";
}
if(in_array("bar",get_class_methods($f2))) {
echo "Foo2::bar() is callable";
} else {
echo "Foo2::bar() isn't callable";
}
?>
output
Foo1::bar() is callable (correct)
Foo2::bar() is callable (incorrect)
Foo1::bar() is callable (correct)
Foo2::bar() isn't callable (correct)
?>
[#12] seufert at gmail dot com [2006-04-26 18:27:47]
Just a note that the behaviour of this function changed between version 5.0.x and 5.1.x when using static member functions
Using this code:
<?php
class a {
static function test() {return "A";}
}
if(method_exists('a','test'))
print call_user_func(array('a','test'));
else
print "Nothing";
?>
PHP 5.1.x returns "A"
PHP 5.0.x returns "Nothing"
Im not sure of a workaround for PHP 5.0.x yet.

Both method_exists() and is_callable() return private and protected functions, which, as mentioned below, causes problems for PHP5/OO programming. You can use get_class_methods() with either an $instance of a class or the 'ClassName' to get only public functions.
[#14] daniel at softel dot jp [2006-01-09 19:34:18]
Note that in PHP5, method_exists() will sucessfully find *private* methods. This has some OO/data-hiding ramifications.
[#15] jpgiot at nospam ifrance.com [2004-05-06 07:42:57]
a little difference :
to find a method of an object (instance of a class)
<?php
if (method_exists($myinstance,'themethod'))
echo 'ok';
?>
to find a method of a class (using the class name, not the instance of the class!)
<?php
if (is_callable(array('theclassname','themethod')))
echo 'ok';
?>
[#16] Thomas@ThBeckmann [2003-01-31 13:47:43]
Though, as Bejamin noted, it's not possible to use the class name in method_exists within the class definition, get_class_methods delivers the method names for a given class name even inside the class. Thus another workaround for the mentioned problem is to use in_array(<method_name>, get_class_methods(<class_name>))
[#17] benjamin_ansbach at web dot de [2002-12-27 12:49:44]
if you want to check for a method "inside" of a class use:
method_exists($this, 'function_name')
i was a bit confused 'cause i thought i'm only able to check for a method when i got an object like $object_name = new class_name() with:
method_exists($object_name, 'method_name')
small example for those who didn't understood what i mean ( maybe caused by bad english :) ):
<?php
class a {
function a() {
if(method_exists($this, 'test'))
echo 'a::test() exists!';
else
echo 'a::test() doesn\'t exists';
}
function test() {
return true;
}
}
$b = new a();
?>
the output will be: a::test() exists!
maybe this will help someone

call_user_method uses the same mechanism as a normal method call. So you can get the returned values as well in this way.
$pagetext=call_user_method($method,$object_call);
All information is then in $pagetext.
