There was a problem hiding this comment.
if $this->cap is a stdClass as the class property docblock claims, then will the (array) cast not create a clone of the data, iterate over the clone, delete properties from the clone, and then leave the original $this->cap untouched?
if so, wouldn’t that create a logical defect and nullify this code?

Your comment would be valid i believe if we were actually unsetting properties of the actual $cap property. We don't though. So the only downside i see with this code is that its actually using a bit of extra memory because of the cloning.

gotcha. thanks for pointing that out.
because I want to be careful here and make sure we are careful about changing code just because a linter flags a warning, I am checking this again.
in explicitly-casing to (array) we will still accept runtime corruption for things not castable into an array, but the PHPStan warning is silenced.
additionally, it seems like the change from iterating over an object’s properties to the array cast changes what’s iterated. whereas the existing foreach only iterates over public properties, the array cast is more equivalent to get_mangled_object_vars() and returns private and protected properties.
php > var_dump( $b, (array) $b, get_object_vars( $b ) );
object(Supervisor)#2 (4) {
["name":"Employee":private]=>
string(9) "sensitive"
["job"]=>
string(8) "recorder"
["tenure":protected]=>
int(0)
["name":"Supervisor":private]=>
string(9) "overruled"
}
array(4) {
["Employeename"]=>
string(9) "sensitive"
["job"]=>
string(8) "recorder"
["*tenure"]=>
int(0)
["Supervisorname"]=>
string(9) "overruled"
}
array(1) {
["job"]=>
string(8) "recorder"
}
php > foreach ( $b as $cap ) { var_dump( $cap ); }
string(8) "recorder"the cast to (array) silences the warning, but doesn’t really address the issue PHPStan raised, which is that we’re attempting to iterate over something that may not be iterable.
we could always throw in a check for is_iterable() around the foreach, which would address the reported warning, but I am also curious why PHPStan isn’t inferring that already?
$this->capis typed asstdClass(which is iterable)- it’s assigned from
get_post_type_capabilities()which is typed to return anobject
perhaps the problem is in PHPStan, or I’m still missing something.
