PHP 5 中的对象比较要比 PHP 4 中复杂,所期望的结果更符合一个面向对象语言。
当使用比较运算符(==)比较两个对象变量时,比较的原则是:如果两个对象的属性和属性值 都相等,而且两个对象是同一个类的实例,那么这两个对象变量相等。
而如果使用全等运算符(===),这两个对象变量一定要指向某个类的同一个实例(即同一个对象)。
通过下面的示例可以理解以上原则。
Example #1 PHP 5 的对象比较
<?php
function bool2str ( $bool )
{
if ( $bool === false ) {
return 'FALSE' ;
} else {
return 'TRUE' ;
}
}
function compareObjects (& $o1 , & $o2 )
{
echo 'o1 == o2 : ' . bool2str ( $o1 == $o2 ) . "\n" ;
echo 'o1 != o2 : ' . bool2str ( $o1 != $o2 ) . "\n" ;
echo 'o1 === o2 : ' . bool2str ( $o1 === $o2 ) . "\n" ;
echo 'o1 !== o2 : ' . bool2str ( $o1 !== $o2 ) . "\n" ;
}
class Flag
{
public $flag ;
function Flag ( $flag = true ) {
$this -> flag = $flag ;
}
}
class OtherFlag
{
public $flag ;
function OtherFlag ( $flag = true ) {
$this -> flag = $flag ;
}
}
$o = new Flag ();
$p = new Flag ();
$q = $o ;
$r = new OtherFlag ();
echo "Two instances of the same class\n" ;
compareObjects ( $o , $p );
echo "\nTwo references to the same instance\n" ;
compareObjects ( $o , $q );
echo "\nInstances of two different classes\n" ;
compareObjects ( $o , $r );
?>
以上例程会输出:
Two instances of the same class o1 == o2 : TRUE o1 != o2 : FALSE o1 === o2 : FALSE o1 !== o2 : TRUETwo references to the same instance o1 == o2 : TRUE o1 != o2 : FALSE o1 === o2 : TRUE o1 !== o2 : FALSEInstances of two different classes o1 == o2 : FALSE o1 != o2 : TRUE o1 === o2 : FALSE o1 !== o2 : TRUE
Note:
PHP 扩展中可以自行定义对象比较的原则。

Este exemplo ?? bem simples.
No exemplo abaixo, irei comparar dois Objetos, tanto para saber se eles s?o iguais e id??nticos ou iguais, por??m n?o id??nticos ou s?o objetos diferentes.
<?php
class Visibilidades {
private $num;
//m??todo construtor
function __construct($num) {
$this->num = $num;
}
//comparando
function booleanNum (Visibilidades $obj) {
if ($this->num == $obj->num) {
echo "Iguais";
if ($this->num === $obj->num) {
echo " e Id??nticos";
} else {
echo ",por??m n?o Id??nticos";
}
} else {
echo "Diferentes";
}
}
}
$Obj1 = new Visibilidades('123');
$Obj2 = new Visibilidades('123');
$Obj1->booleanNum($Obj2);
?>
Neste forma o resultado ser??: (Iguais e Id??nticos).
Se modificar
<?php $Obj2 = new Visibilidades(123); ?>
sem as aspas simples o resultado ser??: (Iguais, por??m n?o Id??nticos).

For comparison about two objects in a class, you can use an interface like this and customize your functions for each class:
<?php
interface EQU {
public static function compare( EQU $me, EQU $you );
public function equals( EQU $you );
}
?>
If you gotcha a super class, you can make generic functions (not safe but work with not complex class):
<?php
abstract class SuperClass {
public function __construct( ) {
// do what you need
}
public static function compare( $obj1, $obj2 ) {
return serialize( $obj1 ) == serialize( $obj2 );
}
public function equals( $obj ) {
return static::compare( $this, $obj );
}
}
?>

This example is way too much confusing, if you new to php comparison motor, you should think (after reading this example) that '==' is actually comparing the type of the objects. that's not true, it actually compares the type of the objects AND the properties of them.
<?php
class A {
private $value;
function __construct ($value)
{
$this->value = $value;
}
}
class B {
private $value;
function __construct ($value)
{
$this->value = $value;
}
}
$a1 = new A (1);
$a2 = new A (2);
$b1 = new B (1);
var_dump( $a1 == $a2 );
var_dump( $a1 == $b1 );
?>

Comparison using <> operators should be documented. Between two objects, at least in PHP5.3, the comparison operation stops and returns at the first unequal property found.
<?php
$o1 = new stdClass();
$o1->prop1 = 'c';
$o1->prop2 = 25;
$o1->prop3 = 201;
$o1->prop4 = 1000;
$o2 = new stdClass();
$o2->prop1 = 'c';
$o2->prop2 = 25;
$o2->prop3 = 200;
$o2->prop4 = 9999;
echo (int)($o1 < $o2); // 0
echo (int)($o1 > $o2); // 1
$o1->prop3 = 200;
echo (int)($o1 < $o2); // 1
echo (int)($o1 > $o2); // 0
?>

This has already been mentioned (see jazfresh at hotmail.com's note), but here it is again in more detail because for objects the difference between == and === is significant.
Loose equality (==) over objects is recursive: if the properties of the two objects being compared are themselves objects, then those properties will also be compared using ==.
<?php
class Link
{
public $link; function __construct($link) { $this->link = $link; }
}
class Leaf
{
public $leaf; function __construct($leaf) { $this->leaf = $leaf; }
}
$leaf1 = new Leaf(42);
$leaf2 = new Leaf(42);
$link1 = new Link($leaf1);
$link2 = new Link($leaf2);
echo "Comparing Leaf object equivalence: is \$leaf1==\$leaf2? ", ($leaf1 == $leaf2 ? "Yes" : "No"), "\n";
echo "Comparing Leaf object identity: is \$leaf1===\$leaf2? ", ($leaf1 === $leaf2 ? "Yes" : "No"), "\n";
echo "\n";
echo "Comparing Link object equivalence: is \$link1==\$link2? ",($link1 == $link2 ? "Yes" : "No"), "\n";
echo "Comparing Link object identity: is \$link1===\$link2? ", ($link1 === $link2 ? "Yes" : "No"), "\n";
?>
Even though $link1 and $link2 contain different Leaf objects, they are still equivalent because the Leaf objects are themselves equivalent.
The practical upshot is that using "==" when "===" would be more appropriate can result in a severe performance penalty, especially if the objects are large and/or complex. In fact, if there are any circular relationships involved between the objects or (recursively) any of their properties, then a fatal error can result because of the implied infinite loop.
<?php
class Foo { public $foo; }
$t = new Foo; $t->foo = $t;
$g = new Foo; $g->foo = $g;
echo "Strict identity: ", ($t===$g ? "True" : "False"),"\n";
echo "Loose equivalence: ", ($t==$g ? "True" : "False"), "\n";
?>
So preference should be given to comparing objects with "===" rather than "=="; if two distinct objects are to be compared for equivalence, try to do so by examining suitable individual properties. (Maybe PHP could get a magic "__equals" method that gets used to evaluate "=="? :) )

COMPARING OBJECTS using PHP's usort() method.
PHP and MySQL both provide ways to sort your data already, and it is a good idea to use that if possible. However, since this section is on comparing your own PHP objects (and that you may need to alter the sorting method in PHP), here is an example of how you can do that using PHP's "user-defined" sort method, usort() and your own class compare() methods.
<?php
class Employee
{
public $first;
public $last;
public $emp_id; // the property we're interested in...
public function __construct($emp_first, $emp_last, $emp_ID)
{
$this->first = $emp_first;
$this->last = $emp_last;
$this->emp_id = $emp_ID;
}
public static function compare($a, $b)
{
if ($a->emp_id < $b->emp_id) return -1;
else if($a->emp_id == $b->emp_id) return 0;
else return 1;
}
public function __toString()
{
return "Employee[first=$this->first, last=$this->last, emp_id=$this->emp_id]";
}
}
# create a PHP array and initialize it with Employee objects.
$employees = array(
new Employee("John", "Smith", 345),
new Employee("Jane", "Doe", 231),
new Employee("Mike", "Barnes", 522),
new Employee("Vicky", "Jones", 107),
new Employee("John", "Doe", 2),
new Employee("Kevin", "Patterson", 89)
);
# sort the $employees array using Employee compare() method.
usort($employees, array("Employee", "compare"));
# print the results
foreach($employees as $employee)
{
echo $employee . '<br>';
}
?>
Results are now sorted by emp_id:
Employee[first=John, last=Doe, emp_id=2]
Employee[first=Kevin, last=Patterson, emp_id=89]
Employee[first=Vicky, last=Jones, emp_id=107]
Employee[first=Jane, last=Doe, emp_id=231]
Employee[first=John, last=Smith, emp_id=345]
Employee[first=Mike, last=Barnes, emp_id=522]
Important Note: Your PHP code will never directly call the Employee's compare() method, but PHP's usort() calls it many many times. Also, when defining the rules for sorting, make sure to get to a "primitive type" level... that is, down to a number or string, and that the function returns a -1, 0, or 1, for reliable and consistent results.
Also see: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.usort.php for more examples of PHP's sorting facilities.
[#7] cross+php at distal dot com [2008-03-05 08:50:44]
In response to "rune at zedeler dot dk"s comment about class contents being equal, I have a similar issue. I want to sort an array of objects using sort().
I know I can do it with usort(), but I'm used to C++ where you can define operators that allow comparison. I see in the zend source code that it calls a compare_objects function, but I don't see any way to implement that function for an object. Would it have to be an extension to provide that interface?
If so, I'd like to suggest that you allow equivalence and/or comparison operations to be defined in a class definition in PHP. Then, the sorts of things rune and I want to do would be much easier.

Note that classes deriving from the same parent aren't considered equal when comparing even using ==; they should also be objects of the same child class.
<?php
class Mom {
private $mAttribute;
public function Mom( $attribute ) {
$this->mAttribute = $attribute;
}
public function Attribute() {
return $this->mAttribute;
}
}
final class Sister extends Mom {
public function Sister( $attribute ) {
$this->Mom( $attribute );
}
}
final class Brother extends Mom {
public function Brother( $attribute ) {
$this->Mom( $attribute );
}
}
$sister = new Sister( 5 );
$brother = new Brother( 5 );
assert( $sister == $brother ); // will FAIL!
?>
This assertion will fail, because sister and brother are not of the same child class!
If you want to compare based on the parent class object type only, you might have to define a function for comparisons like these, and use it instead of the == operator:
<?php
function SiblingsEqual( $a, $b ) {
if ( !( $a instanceof Mom ) ) {
return false;
}
if ( !( $b instanceof Mom ) ) {
return false;
}
if ( $a->Attribute() != $b->Attribute() ) {
return false;
}
return true;
}
assert( SiblingsEqual( $sister, $brother ) ); // will succeed
?>

Whoops, apparently I hadn't checked the array-part of the below very well.
Forgot to test if the arrays had same length, and had some misaligned parenthesis.
This one should work better :+)
<?php
function deepCompare($a,$b) {
if(is_object($a) && is_object($b)) {
if(get_class($a)!=get_class($b))
return false;
foreach($a as $key => $val) {
if(!deepCompare($val,$b->$key))
return false;
}
return true;
}
else if(is_array($a) && is_array($b)) {
while(!is_null(key($a)) && !is_null(key($b))) {
if (key($a)!==key($b) || !deepCompare(current($a),current($b)))
return false;
next($a); next($b);
}
return is_null(key($a)) && is_null(key($b));
}
else
return $a===$b;
}
?>

I haven't found a build-in function to check whether two obects are identical - that is, all their fields are identical.
In other words,
<?php
class A {
var $x;
function __construct($x) { $this->x = $x; }
}
$identical1 = new A(42);
$identical2 = new A(42);
$different = new A('42');
?>
Comparing the objects with "==" will claim that all three of them are equal. Comparing with "===" will claim that all are un-equal.
I have found no build-in function to check that the two identicals are
identical, but not identical to the different.
The following function does that:
<?php
function deepCompare($a,$b) {
if(is_object($a) && is_object($b)) {
if(get_class($a)!=get_class($b))
return false;
foreach($a as $key => $val) {
if(!deepCompare($val,$b->$key))
return false;
}
return true;
}
else if(is_array($a) && is_array($b)) {
while(!is_null(key($a) && !is_null(key($b)))) {
if (key($a)!==key($b) || !deepCompare(current($a),current($b)))
return false;
next($a); next($b);
}
return true;
}
else
return $a===$b;
}
?>
[#11] jazfresh at hotmail.com [2006-12-08 02:36:38]
Note that when comparing object attributes, the comparison is recursive (at least, it is with PHP 5.2). That is, if $a->x contains an object then that will be compared with $b->x in the same manner. Be aware that this can lead to recursion errors:
<?php
class Foo {
public $x;
}
$a = new Foo();
$b = new Foo();
$a->x = $b;
$b->x = $a;
print_r($a == $b);
?>
Results in:
