var_dump

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

var_dump — Dumps information about a variable

Description

void var_dump ( mixed $expression [, mixed $expression [, $... ]] )

This function displays structured information about one or more expressions that includes its type and value. Arrays and objects are explored recursively with values indented to show structure.

In PHP 5 all public, private and protected properties of objects will be returned in the output.

Tip

Precis som med allting som skickar sin utdata direkt till webbläsaren kan du använda output-control-funktioner för att fånga datan från denna funktion, och spara den i en sträng (till exempel).

Parameters

expression: The variable you want to export.

Return Values

No value is returned.
