SplFixedArray (class)
The SplFixedArray class
Introduction
(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0, PHP 7)
The SplFixedArray class provides the main functionalities of array. The main differences between a SplFixedArray and a normal PHP array is that the SplFixedArray is of fixed length and allows only integers within the range as indexes. The advantage is that it allows a faster array implementation.
Class synopsis

/* Methods */
public __construct ( int $size
= 0 )
public int count ( void )
public mixed current ( void )
public static SplFixedArray fromArray ( array $array [, bool $save_indexes = true ] )
public int getSize ( void )
public int key ( void )
public void next ( void )
public bool offsetExists ( int $index )
public mixed offsetGet ( int $index )
public void offsetSet ( int $index , mixed $newval )
public void offsetUnset ( int $index )
public void rewind ( void )
public bool setSize ( int $size )
public array toArray ( void )
public bool valid ( void )
public void __wakeup ( void )
}
Examples
Example #1 SplFixedArray usage example
<?php
// Initialize the array with a fixed length
$array = new SplFixedArray(5
$array[1] = 2;
$array[4] = "foo";
var_dump($array[0] // NULL
var_dump($array[1] // int(2)
var_dump($array["4"] // string(3) "foo"
// Increase the size of the array to 10
$array->setSize(10
$array[9] = "asdf";
// Shrink the array to a size of 2
$array->setSize(2
// The following lines throw a RuntimeException: Index invalid or out of range
try {
var_dump($array["non-numeric"]
} catch(RuntimeException $re) {
echo "RuntimeException: ".$re->getMessage()."\n";
}
try {
var_dump($array[-1]
} catch(RuntimeException $re) {
echo "RuntimeException: ".$re->getMessage()."\n";
}
try {
var_dump($array[5]
} catch(RuntimeException $re) {
echo "RuntimeException: ".$re->getMessage()."\n";
}
?>
The above example will output:
NULL
int(2)
string(3) "foo"
RuntimeException: Index invalid or out of range
RuntimeException: Index invalid or out of range
RuntimeException: Index invalid or out of range
