By default, the _ clone method is used to create an object with the same attributes and methods as the original object. if you want to change the default content during cloning, overwrite (attribute or method) in _ clone ). The clone method can have no parameters, but it also contains the this and that pointers (that points to the Copied object ). if you choose to clone yourself, you must be careful to copy any information contained in your object, from that to this. if you use _ clone to copy. PHP will not perform any implicit replication, The following shows an example of automatic objects using sequence numbers: <? PHP Class objecttracker // object Tracker { Private Static $ nextserial = 0; Private $ ID; Private $ name; Function _ construct ($ name) // Constructor { $ This-> name = $ name; $ This-> id = + self: $ nextserial; } Function _ clone () // clone { $ This-> name = "clone of $ that-> name "; $ This-> id = + self: $ nextserial; } Function GETID () // obtain the ID Attribute Value { Return ($ this-> ID ); } Function getname () // obtain the value of the name attribute { Return ($ this-> name ); } } $ Ot = new objecttracker ("Zeev's object "); $ Ot2 = $ ot->__ clone (); // Output: 1 Zeev's object Print ($ ot-> GETID (). "". $ ot-> getname (). "<br> "); // Output: 2 clone of Zeev's object Print ($ ot2-> GETID (). "". $ ot2-> getname (). "<br> "); ?>
