The WeakReference class

(PHP 7 >= 7.4.0)

はじめに

Weak references allow the programmer to retain a reference to an object which does not prevent the object from being destroyed. They are useful for implementing cache like structures.

注意:

The class WeakReference is not to be confused with the class WeakRef of the Weakref extension.

WeakReferences cannot be serialized.

クラス概要

WeakReference {
/* メソッド */
public __construct ( void )
public static create ( object $referent ) : WeakReference
public get ( void ) : ?object
}

WeakReference Examples

例1 Basic WeakReference Usage

<?php
$obj = new stdClass;
$weakref = WeakReference::create($obj);
var_dump($weakref->get());
unset($obj);
var_dump($weakref->get());
?>

上の例の出力は、 たとえば以下のようになります。

object(stdClass)#1 (0) {
}
NULL
