Detailed Description

Re-usable, serializable priority queue implementation.

SplPriorityQueue acts as a heap; on iteration, each item is removed from the queue. If you wish to re-use such a queue, you need to clone it first. This makes for some interesting issues if you wish to delete items from the queue, or, as already stated, iterate over it multiple times.

This class aggregates items for the queue itself, but also composes an "inner" iterator in the form of an SplPriorityQueue object for performing the actual iteration.

Member Function Documentation

__clone ( )

Add support for deep cloning.

Returns
void
contains (   $datum)

Does the queue contain the given datum?

Parameters
mixed$datum
Returns
bool
count ( )

How many items are in the queue?

Returns
int
extract ( )

Extract a node from the inner queue and sift up.

Returns
mixed
getIterator ( )

Retrieve the inner iterator.

SplPriorityQueue acts as a heap, which typically implies that as items are iterated, they are also removed. This does not work for situations where the queue may be iterated multiple times. As such, this class aggregates the values, and also injects an SplPriorityQueue. This method retrieves the inner queue object, and clones it for purposes of iteration.

Returns
SplPriorityQueue
getQueue ( )
protected

Get the inner priority queue instance.

Exceptions
Exception\DomainException
Returns
SplPriorityQueue
hasPriority (   $priority)

Does the queue have an item with the given priority?

Parameters
int$priority
Returns
bool
insert (   $data,
  $priority = 1 
)

Insert an item into the queue.

Priority defaults to 1 (low priority) if none provided.

Parameters
mixed$data
int$priority
Returns
PriorityQueue
isEmpty ( )

Is the queue empty?

Returns
bool
remove (   $datum)

Remove an item from the queue.

This is different than extract(); its purpose is to dequeue an item.

This operation is potentially expensive, as it requires re-initialization and re-population of the inner queue.

Note: this removes the first item matching the provided item found. If the same item has been added multiple times, it will not remove other instances.

Parameters
mixed$datum
Returns
bool False if the item was not found, true otherwise.
serialize ( )

Serialize the data structure.

Returns
string
setInternalQueueClass (   $class)

Specify the internal queue class.

Please see getIterator() for details on the necessity of an internal queue class. The class provided should extend SplPriorityQueue.

Parameters
string$class
Returns
PriorityQueue
toArray (   $flag = self::EXTR_DATA)

Serialize to an array.

By default, returns only the item data, and in the order registered (not sorted). You may provide one of the EXTR_* flags as an argument, allowing the ability to return priorities or both data and priority.

Parameters
int$flag
Returns
array
top ( )

Peek at the top node in the queue, based on priority.

Returns
mixed
unserialize (   $data)

Unserialize a string into a PriorityQueue object.

Serialization format is compatible with Zend

Parameters
string$data
Returns
void
