Earlier, I was questioning Inverness concerning a few things and also leaning a few things from him concerning a system I wanted to create for a project. He suggested I create a way to serialize and un-serialize objects into strings.
It will be useful for the system I'm planning and required a bit of tweaking, but I decided it could be somewhat useful for the public.
Use: These two functions are for turning the values of all the vars in an object into a long string. And vice versa.
Credits:To Inverness, for the idea as well as quite a bit of help with the upper function. (I.E. Basically giving me the answer
, brain isn't functioning to well right now.)
PHP Code:
public function serialize(obj) {
temp.string;
temp.var;
for (var : obj.getDynamicVarNames()) {
string @= obj.(@ var) @ ":";
}
return string;
}
public function deserialize(string) {
temp.array;
temp.i;
temp.sobj;
if (string.type() != 1)
return;
array = string.tokenize(":");
for (i = 0; i < array.size(); i ++) {
makevar("sobj.var" @ i) = array[i];
}
return sobj;
}
