Implementing Wakeup or Clone
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
As explained in the
|
|
`restrictions for entity classes in the manual <http://www.doctrine-project.org/documentation/manual/2_0/en/architecture#entities>`_,
|
|
it is usually not allowed for an entity to implement ``__wakeup``
|
|
or ``__clone``, because Doctrine makes special use of them.
|
|
However, it is quite easy to make use of these methods in a safe
|
|
way by guarding the custom wakeup or clone code with an entity
|
|
identity check, as demonstrated in the following sections.
|
|
|
|
Safely implementing \_\_wakeup
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To safely implement ``__wakeup``, simply enclose your
|
|
implementation code in an identity check as follows:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
<?php
|
|
class MyEntity
|
|
{
|
|
private $id; // This is the identifier of the entity.
|
|
//...
|
|
|
|
public function __wakeup()
|
|
{
|
|
// If the entity has an identity, proceed as normal.
|
|
if ($this->id) {
|
|
// ... Your code here as normal ...
|
|
}
|
|
// otherwise do nothing, do NOT throw an exception!
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
//...
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Safely implementing \_\_clone
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Safely implementing ``__clone`` is pretty much the same:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
<?php
|
|
class MyEntity
|
|
{
|
|
private $id; // This is the identifier of the entity.
|
|
//...
|
|
|
|
public function __clone()
|
|
{
|
|
// If the entity has an identity, proceed as normal.
|
|
if ($this->id) {
|
|
// ... Your code here as normal ...
|
|
}
|
|
// otherwise do nothing, do NOT throw an exception!
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
//...
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
As you have seen, it is quite easy to safely make use of
|
|
``__wakeup`` and ``__clone`` in your entities without adding any
|
|
really Doctrine-specific or Doctrine-dependant code.
|
|
|
|
These implementations are possible and safe because when Doctrine
|
|
invokes these methods, the entities never have an identity (yet).
|
|
Furthermore, it is possibly a good idea to check for the identity
|
|
in your code anyway, since it's rarely the case that you want to
|
|
unserialize or clone an entity with no identity.
