Is there any way to set a private/protected static property using reflection classes?
For accessing private/protected properties of a class we may need to set the accessibility of that class first, using reflection. Try the following code:
$obj = new ClassName();$refObject = new ReflectionObject( $obj );$refProperty = $refObject->getProperty( 'property' );$refProperty->setAccessible( true );$refProperty->setValue(null, 'new value');
For accessing private/protected properties of a class, using reflection, without the need for a ReflectionObject
instance:
For static properties:
<?php$reflection = new \ReflectionProperty('ClassName', 'propertyName');$reflection->setAccessible(true);$reflection->setValue(null, 'new property value');
For non-static properties:
<?php$instance = new SomeClassName();$reflection = new \ReflectionProperty(get_class($instance), 'propertyName');$reflection->setAccessible(true);$reflection->setValue($instance, 'new property value');
You can implement also a class internal method to change the object properties access setting and then set value with $instanve->properyname = .....
:
public function makeAllPropertiesPublic(): void{ $refClass = new ReflectionClass(\get_class($this)); $props = $refClass->getProperties(); foreach ($props as $property) { $property->setAccessible(true); }}
