Looping through all the properties of object php

Question

How can I loop through all the properties of object?. Right now I have to write a new code line to print each property of object

echo $obj->name; echo $obj->age; 

Can I loop through all the properties of an object using foreach loop or any loop?

Something like this

foreach ($obj as $property => $value)   

Answer 1

If this is just for debugging output, you can use the following to see all the types and values as well.

var_dump($obj); 

If you want more control over the output you can use this:

foreach ($obj as $key => $value) {     echo "$key => $value\n"; } 

Answer 2

For testing purposes I use the following:

//return assoc array when called from outside the class it will only contain public properties and values  var_dump(get_object_vars($obj));
