假设我有这样的PHP代码:

$FooBar = "a string";

然后我需要一个这样的函数:

print_var_name($FooBar);

打印:

FooBar

有什么想法如何实现这一点?这在PHP中可能吗?


当前回答

我一直在找这个,但我决定把名字传进来,我通常把名字写在剪贴板上。

function VarTest($my_var,$my_var_name){
    echo '$'.$my_var_name.': '.$my_var.'<br />';
}

$fruit='apple';
VarTest($fruit,'fruit');

我真的看不出用例……如果你将输入print_var_name($foobar)什么那么难(和不同)输入打印(“foobar”)代替?

因为即使你要在函数中使用这个,你也会得到变量的本地名称…

无论如何,这是反射手册,以防你需要什么。

似乎没有人提到这是a)困难和b)不明智的根本原因:

A "variable" is just a symbol pointing at something else. In PHP, it internally points to something called a "zval", which can actually be used for multiple variables simultaneously, either because they have the same value (PHP implements something called "copy-on-write" so that $foo = $bar doesn't need to allocate extra memory straight away) or because they have been assigned (or passed to a function) by reference (e.g. $foo =& $bar). So a zval has no name. When you pass a parameter to a function you are creating a new variable (even if it's a reference). You could pass something anonymous, like "hello", but once inside your function, it's whatever variable you name it as. This is fairly fundamental to code separation: if a function relied on what a variable used to be called, it would be more like a goto than a properly separate function. Global variables are generally considered a bad idea. A lot of the examples here assume that the variable you want to "reflect" can be found in $GLOBALS, but this will only be true if you've structured your code badly and variables aren't scoped to some function or object. Variable names are there to help programmers read their code. Renaming variables to better suit their purpose is a very common refactoring practice, and the whole point is that it doesn't make any difference.

现在,我理解这种调试的愿望(尽管一些建议的用法远远超出了这一点),但作为一种通用的解决方案,它实际上并没有你想象的那么有用:如果你的调试函数说你的变量是“$file”,那仍然可能是你代码中数十个“$file”变量中的任何一个,或者一个你称为“$filename”的变量,但传递给一个参数为“$file”的函数。

更有用的信息是在代码中调用调试函数的位置。因为你可以在你的编辑器中快速找到它,你可以看到你为自己输出的变量,甚至可以一次性将整个表达式传递给它(例如debug('$foo + $bar = ')。($foo + $bar))。

为此,你可以在调试函数的顶部使用这段代码:

$backtrace = debug_backtrace();
echo '# Debug function called from ' . $backtrace[0]['file'] . ' at line ' . $backtrace[0]['line'];

为什么不构建一个简单的函数,然后告诉它呢?

/**
 * Prints out $obj for debug
 *
 * @param any_type $obj
 * @param (string) $title
 */
function print_all( $obj, $title = false )
{
    print "\n<div style=\"font-family:Arial;\">\n";
    if( $title ) print "<div style=\"background-color:red; color:white; font-size:16px; font-weight:bold; margin:0; padding:10px; text-align:center;\">$title</div>\n";
    print "<pre style=\"background-color:yellow; border:2px solid red; color:black; margin:0; padding:10px;\">\n\n";
    var_export( $obj );
    print "\n\n</pre>\n</div>\n";
}

print_all( $aUser, '$aUser' );

它可能被认为是快速和肮脏的,但我个人倾向于使用这样的函数/方法:

public function getVarName($var) {      
  $tmp = array($var => '');
  $keys = array_keys($tmp);
  return trim($keys[0]);
}

基本上,它只是创建一个包含一个空/空元素的关联数组,使用需要名称的变量作为键。

然后使用array_keys获取该键的值并返回。

显然,这很快就会变得混乱,在生产环境中不可取,但它可以解决所提出的问题。

使用此方法将用户变量从全局变量分离到当前的检查变量。

function get_user_var_defined () 
{
    return array_slice($GLOBALS,8,count($GLOBALS)-8);     
}

function get_var_name ($var) 
{
    $vuser = get_user_var_defined(); 
    foreach($vuser as $key=>$value) 
    {
        if($var===$value) return $key ; 
    }
}
