最近在看.net的新功能Linq,第一感觉,功能非常实用.
数组,字符串都可以用我们熟悉的 SQL 方式来查询,太方便啦!
就想看看PHP在这方面有没有这样的类库.
不查不知道,一查吓一跳,还真的有类似的类库,命名为PHPLinq.
PHPLinq的首页:
http://www.codeplex.com/PHPLinq
Examples can be found in the test package in the latest release.
Let''s say we have an array of strings and want to select only the strings whose length is
// Create data source<br>$names = array("John", "Peter", "Joe", "Patrick", "Donald", "Eric"); <br> <br>$result = from(''$name'')->in($names)<br> ->where(''$name => strlen($name) ->select(''$name''); <br>
Feels familiar to SQL? Yes indeed! No more writing a loop over this array, checking the string''s length, and adding it to a temporary variable.
You may have noticed something strange... What''s that $name => strlen($name)
There are lots of other examples available in the PHPLinq download, but here''s an advanced one... Let''s say we have an array of Employee objects. This array should be sorted by Employee name, then Employee age. We want only Employees whose name has a length of 4 characters. Next thing: we do not want an Employee instance in our result. Instead, the returning array should contain objects containing an e-mail address and a domain name.
First of all, let''s define our data source:
class Employee {<br> public $Name;<br> public $Email;<br> public $Age;<br> <br> public function __construct($name, $email, $age) {<br> $this->Name = $name;<br> $this->Email = $email;<br> $this->Age = $age;<br>
