ReflectionClass::getProperties() filtering example

This example demonstrates usage of the optional filter parameter, where it essentially skips private properties.

<?php
class Foo {
    public    $foo  = 1;
    protected $bar  = 2;
    private   $baz  = 3;
}
 
$foo = new Foo();
 
$reflect = new ReflectionClass($foo);
$props   = $reflect->getProperties(ReflectionProperty::IS_PUBLIC | ReflectionProperty::IS_PROTECTED);
 
foreach ($props as $prop) {
    print $prop->getName() . "\n";
}
 
var_dump($props);
 
?>

The above example will output something similar to:

foo
bar
array(2) {
  [0]=>
  object(ReflectionProperty)#3 (2) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(3) "foo"
    ["class"]=>
    string(3) "Foo"
  }
  [1]=>
  object(ReflectionProperty)#4 (2) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(3) "bar"
    ["class"]=>
    string(3) "Foo"
  }
}
