File_Fortune::getAll

File_Fortune::getAll() – Retrieve all fortunes from the current file

Synopsis

require_once 'File/Fortune.php';

array File_Fortune::getAll ( )

Description

getAll() can be used to pull the entire fortune database into an array. Typically this is a bad idea as fortune files are often very large. If you wish to do some processing with each fortune, use the File_Fortune object as an iterator:


<?php
foreach ($fortunes as $fortune) {
    // do something with the fortune
}
?>

Note: you can use getAll() when a directory or multiple files have been set; in such a context, it will return all fortunes in all files.

Throws

throws no exceptions thrown

Note

This function can not be called statically.
